Emergency services from across South Wales will be staging their annual 999 Day in Cardiff Bay this weekend.

Police, fire and ambulance crews are among those taking over Roald Dahl Plass this Saturday for a day of live demonstrations, competitions and fun activities.

The demonstrations include rope and water rescues, a display from the South Wales Fire and Rescue Service' cadets and how teams deal with road traffic collisions.

The RNLI, coastguards and the NCA Coastwatch scheme will be at the event, offering advice and information, along with the British Red Cross, the Salvation Army, police horses and rescue dogs from Newfoundland.

There's free entry for the 999 Rescue Day, which runs from 10am - 3pm.

More details can be found on the South Wales Fire and Rescue Service website.
