Talk by a police dog handler

PC Andy Lewis and his trusty dog Victor, who is just coming up to retirement at the age of 8years, came to visit Launceston YFC at Eagle House. PC Lewis talked through his role as an officer, finding people as well as stopping people. Members were amazed at the strength of the dog, especially on hearing that Victor had torn someone's calf muscle, plus disemboweled a drink drive. It was a fascinating talk that was rounded off by amusement when Victor took a large interest in Ali Jones's bag!!

About Launceston YFC

Launceston Young Farmers Club was established in 1947 and is run by members for members.

We have weekly meetings on Thursdays which range from talks on homeopathy or photography to activities such as circus skills or beach barbeques and visits to farms, tourist attractions and businesses.

We take part in many competitions and events across the county and country with great sucess, and do the odd bit of socialising as well...

The club is a charitable organisation itself, but we also engage in fundraising events for other charities, raising over £2000 last year.

Members range in age from 16 to 26 and anyone is welcome to join.
