Dial 999: Everyday Super Heroes at Wrexham Museum - 12 April

We all rely on the three emergency services - the Police, Ambulance and Fire & Rescue – to protect our communities and save lives.

A celebration of the emergency services is being held this month and Wrexham Museum in Regent Street will host the event, entitled Everyday Super Heroes, on April 12.  It is timed to coincide with the museum's current exhibition, Dial 999: A History of Emergency Services.

Staff at the museum have teamed up with North Wales police, North Wales Fire and Rescue and the Welsh Ambulance Services NHS Trust for an action-packed day of displays and demonstrations.

There will be opportunities to inspect emergency services machines, try on kit, ask questions and learn how to keep safe.

Tours of the fire station will also be laid on and there will the chance to compare and contrast the equipment firefighters have used over the past 150 years.

Paramedics will be staging CPR demonstrations and letting people see inside some of the vehicles they use during emergencies,

Visitors will also be able to take part in a police crime scene investigation challenge and learn about the skills required to catch criminals from evidence they leave behind.

The special event will take place on Saturday 12th April 2014, further details can be found on: https://www.facebook.com/WrexhamMuseums
