AWE drone has a new role!

AWE’s specialist drone team had an unusual assignment this week – inspecting the roof at St. Mary’s Church in Tadley!

Town and Borough Councillor David Leeks was also on hand, he is a member of AWE’s Local Liaison Committee and it was his suggestion that the drone may be useful.
