LIVES First Responders Update Autumn 2011

We would like to take this opportunity to thank Metheringham Parish Council for the opportunity to deliver the Annual Parish Report in exchange for a significant donation to our group funds. We would also like to thank those of you who continue to support us personally, making the running of our group so straightforward without the need for a lot of additional fund raising events. We have had some significant developments in our group with the addition of a couple of new female responders, helping to even out our male/female balance! We have also been able to significantly increase our daytime cover, as both of the new ladies can sometimes be available during the day, and with another of our responders recently retired, our rota is looking much more healthy.

You may be interested to know that as well as pre-ambulance emergency support, another aspect of the work of LIVES is to provide First Aid cover to large events. Many of our responders volunteer in this way on top of their allocated hours on the rota covering emergency calls to Metheringham and the surrounding villages. We would continue to encourage new people to join our group, For more information contact Beth 321919 or Jenny 32162
