YOUNGSTERS at a Colchester nursery got to grips with bandages at a first aid fun day.

St John Ambulance volunteer Wayne David visited the Puddleducks Pre-School to show them round an ambulance and its equipment.

The trip was part of an initiative at the nursery to introduce children to the emergency services. A volunteer at the Colchester unit for 10 years, Wayne organised the visit as his two children go to the pre-school.
