"There's a whole variety going on"
Rebecca Taylor is a firefighter in King’s Lynn- who's organised this:
"We do a lot of community events and we love getting involved in them. We know that there's such a feel for it in the western part of the county, as well.
"Therefore as an organisation we wanted to run something ourselves with the help of Norfolk Constabulary and King's Lynn and West Norfolk Borough Council.
"There's a whole variety going on, you can learn how to do CPR, how to be safe in the water and how to drive a fire truck.
"There's also a range of demos going on in the arena, so you can see a car getting cut up, for example.
