From one hard drive to another

A NEW face around the Warwick Ambulance Station of late belongs to new kid on the block Jason Lockyer.

Two years ago Mr Lockyer traded in his job as a computer repairman for green overalls and took on a new role saving lives.

He moved from Brisbane in late October to join the Warwick team.

"It's a different type of work from the city, Mr Lockyer said.

"It doesn't stop in Brisbane."

He said he loved the job and the community spirit.

"It has its days but I generally love the job, especially in Warwick," he said.

"Everyone makes time for you and is very supportive.

"I think I will stay a while."
