A COMMUNITY leader has praised the people of Brockworth for
pulling together during a bomb scare.
When a suspicious package found in Lloyds TSB brought police
cars, fire engines and the bomb squad racing into Brockworth on
Wednesday, scores of residents and workers were evacuated.
But staff at Brockworth Community Centre were quick to open their
doors during the incident, later found to be a hoax.
CHCI Parish council chairman Jim Hunt, said: "My staff were
absolutely wonderful. They sprung into action as soon as we were
notified, and even the lady who sometimes works in the kitchen
dropped everything and came over to help."
