There were a variety of rehearsal air raid precautions across Birmingham, many carried out at the start of WW2, especially in schools in non-evacuation areas.

Here are just three quite different practices. Does anyone remember being involved in a rehearsal ? Viv.

A few here are clocking on a fair bit Vivienne but anyone would have to be in their late eighties or in their nineties to have been old enough to participate I guess. :D
