Public safety event for Ammanford
Carmarthenshire Trading Standards Services and Ammanford Lions have joined forces for a public safety event - This Winter, Don’t Be Robbed – Be Ready.
It will be held at Ammanford Pensioners Hall on Friday October 29 from 2- 4:30pm.
The main event of the afternoon will be a performance of sketches by the Fedwen Theatre Company recreating real life situations as reported to Carmarthenshire Trading Standards Services and Dyfed Powys Police.
Carmarthenshire fair trading officer Quita Davies said: “It is a community theatre production aimed at increasing people’s awareness about door step crime and scams.
“This project is a joint initiative between Trading Standards Services and the Fedwen Theatre Company of Saron.”
It is an afternoon not to be missed with representatives from Trading Standards Services, community police, the fire brigade, Bobby van, Care and Repair, Ammanford Citizens Advice Bureau, Meals on Wheels and the Message in a Bottle scheme.
People are encouraged to bring in their electric blankets to be tested free of charge by the fire service - if they fail the test, blankets will be replaced free of charge.
Tea, coffee and biscuits will be available. There may be some transport available, please ring John on 01269 594911.
Executive board member for public protection Cllr Pam Palmer said: “Community Theatre is proven to be an excellent medium for getting a message across to the public. All performances have been very well received.
“It is well worth visiting Ammanford Pensioners Hall for advice and if you have an electric blanket bring it along for a free test.”
