Ashwellthorpe-based Britannia Fire, the UK’s leading
manufacturer of lightweight, composite fire extinguishers, has answered a call
for help from Wreningham CE VC Primary School. Donating six innovative P50 fire
extinguishers, it’s helped transform fire safety at the school and save vital
funds.
Wreningham CE VC Primary School is small with only ~100 pupils.
Budgets are tight and Britannia’s donation will mean the money can be put to
good use elsewhere in the school.
Elaine Thurlow, Business Manager at Wreningham CE VC Primary
School is grateful for the support:
“Our fire extinguishers were due to be serviced but our
existing service engineer had retired, so we approached Britannia Fire to see
if they could help. To my surprise, they quickly responded offering to give us brand-new
fire extinguishers, which are much more user friendly and better for the
environment.
“We immediately said, yes please! Britannia Fire is local to
us and having their help and support is really appreciated.
“Installation was quick and easy, and they were able to work around
the children and the school day. As their fire extinguishers are multipurpose,
we were also able to halve the amount of fire extinguishers on site, saving
much needed space.
“The children have been learning about fire safety this term,
so the donation was very timely and served as a very useful lesson prop.”
Laura Hutt, Operations Manager from Britannia Fire, comments:
“We are always keen to support our local community. We were
delighted to help Wreningham CE VC Primary School as we know how difficult funding
can be for schools. We knew our innovative P50 fire extinguisher would make a
real difference to them. Not only are they easy to use, they also don’t corrode
so last a lot longer and don’t need costly annual servicing. A win, win for the
school.”
