The East of England Ambulance Service, police, fire and nurses from the local hospital made a special visit to the St Thomas RC Primary school in Letchworth during March.

The school were holding their 'People who help Us' week, which gave the children a chance to meet and talk to the emergency crews who help people in their time of need when someone dials 999.
