Crucial Crew comes to Haverhill
Nearly 1000 children will learn how to keep themselves safe in a variety of situations when they take part in this year’s St Edmundsbury’s Crucial Crew initiative, which is being held in Haverhill for the first time.
Students aged 10 and 11 from schools across the borough will attend the Crucial Crew sessions at Samuel Ward Upper School, facing challenging scenarios ranging from fire and hazards in the home to road safety or antisocial behaviour.
Kicking off on Tuesday 5 July, the programme uses role play settings to raise awareness of
personal safety. The realistic scenarios are staffed by experts who show children how to deal
with potentially dangerous situations to protect both themselves and others. This year the
scenarios will be put together by the Police, Fire Service, Risky Rubbish (substance misuse),
EDF Energy, the Red Cross, Local Health Partnership, St Edmundsbury Borough Council and
Suffolk County Council.
