She spoke to us about the dangers linked to smoking and vaping, alcohol and drugs and warned us about the effects that these substances can have on our bodies and choices and most importantly the importance of making safe, healthy choices. PC Amy encouraged us to think about peer pressure and the importance of looking out for each other and encouraging our friends to make positive choices.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
It wasn\u2019t all serious, though \u2013 PC McGregor had a warm and friendly way of explaining things and made sure that everyone felt comfortable joining in the discussion.<\/div>\n
Thank-you to PC McGregor for taking the time to visit us!\ud83d\ude03<\/div>\n
