Leader of the Council, Cllr Mark Pritchard, said: “On behalf of everyone in Wrexham I would like to thank every serving and former member of the emergency services for their selfless dedication to duty, their bravery and their passion for the job they do here in Wrexham and across the country.”
Chief Executive, Ian Bancroft, echoed these words and said “We should all take a few minutes on Monday to reflect on what the emergency services mean to us, how we rely on them in a 999 situation and how we can encourage everyone to be respectful of the job they do and to be grateful that they are there should we need them in an emergency.”
