Following extensive flooding in 2013 and the recent Regent Road fire in Great Yarmouth, dozens of volunteers have been carrying out a simulated emergency evacuation at Ormiston Venture Academy in Gorleston.

More than 30 'evacuees' were brought to the school with a variety of physical and emotional needs and dealt with by volunteers. The training was provided in case another major event occurs within the area.
