Not that old helmet So,question for the Fire fighters on here Did I read somewhere that the fire brigades use old crash helmets for practicing removal from roadside casualties? I've been to my local station but it's one of these unmanned sites,if it would be useful I'll try the big station in the next town as I'd rather it had some purpose rather than me just throwing it. |

Yes, we do. We use old helmets to train folk on safe helmet removal technique at Biker Down safety workshops. Drop it in to your nearest local whole time fire station m8 rather than a retained RDS station which it sounds like you have tried to do. Any additional skid lids are welcome, not sure where your nearest Biker Down team is in Wales though m8, are you South, North or Mid/West Wales dude?

North Wales,in Abergele,it's only a little fire station here and seldom manned. I know there's a BikeSafe round here but not heard of Bikerdown,perhaps they don't run it round here. I'll do a search for it,thank you
