The Fire Service’s Fire Safety Ambassador, Peter Leitch, aka the Mad Butcher has been getting hands-on in his new role! Wayne Gerrand, manager of the Palmerston North Mad Butcher shop, and ex member of Carterton VFB, invited Peter to Palmy on a promotional tour. While there, Peter took time out to help promote the Keep Looking When You’re Cooking and Don’t Drink & Fry campaigns that he’s graciously donated his time to. He even signed a copy of December’s Fire & Rescue. Right now we’re working with Peter on a range of other promotional initiatives designed to encourage the installation and regular testing of smoke alarms. Noticeboard In December’s Fire & Rescue we did a recap of the year’s events. In the recap we reported that Kinleith Pulp and Paper Mill had been razed by fire on February 5. This was not true, Kinleith did experience a fire but it is back fully operational (and has been for sometime). Fire & Rescue regrets the error. Te Kuiti VFB is celebrating its centenary during Easter weekend this year. Any inquiries to be directed to either Grahame Howell on 021 253 7227 or Phil New on 027 661 5800.
