West Berkshire Council will be holding an online careers event webinar on 30th January 2023 at 12pm. Managers from various departments will be sharing information about some of the job openings they are looking to fill, e.g. a member of the Countryside team will be speaking about Ranger positions.
As a safety enhancement, the Rotaid cabinet originally installed int the BT kiosk has been replaced by a locked Sentry cabinet. This will safeguard the defibrillator device for when required in an emergency.
As with the other defibrillators in the village, access can only be made by dialling 999. The emergency services will assess the situation from the information the caller gives them and will advise the PIN code to enable access to the device.
