Today was a day of various activities......
At 9:15am 10 NCVs met to participate in a 1st aid training course held in the Pateley Bridge Council Chambers. The day was led by Steve Smith of First-aider Training (www.firstaidertraining.org.uk). Everyone learned a great deal and had some fun into the bargain. Now we all know what to do in an emergency.
Dear me - these four look as if they need a lot of attention.
Osian gets up close and personal with a resuscitation mannequin
Julia and Mike learn how to do chest
compressions to the tune of 'Nelly the elephant'
Steve keeps a watchful eye to ensure that Phil
doesn't make this poor casualty's situation any worse.
Whilst this was going on 3 other NCVs and 3 heritage skills students and their tutors met at the barn to do either some work on the cleaning and maintaining of tools or distributing some flyers around the village of Bewerley to advertise the Fishpond Wood Open afternoon. This is a Nidderdale AONB event to inform residents in the area about the work already done by us in the wood and to outline the future plans for the lake and ice house.
The lopper sharpening gang get busy in the workshop.
All that rhodie cutting has taken its toll on these particular tools.
