Home safety, fire safety and general interest films have been shown at the Alice Burrell
Centre on two occasions and at one of the Old People's Homes. It is intended that this service
will be extended to other homes later.
Training films, filmstrips, slides and talks have been arranged for the students and staff
at the day nurseries and the Social Work Adviser has been assisted in the training of social welfare
staff and students by the showing of training films.
