Nice to have a proper logo and be working on something positive. We had to take a break while flood defence works got started, but we’re still determined to get as many defibrillators out there as possible. Looking forward to seeing what Mr Grundys Tavern and Brewery do for their fundraising! There’s some great ideas there. As always huge Thankyou to Derby Ambulance First Responders and Power & Control Electrical & Renewables.

Meet Kacper, our newest addition to the team! 🙌 Kacper is one of our newest responders and also works for East Midlands Ambulance Service patient transfer service (PTS). He's been out with his mentor, Peter, who's been showing him the ropes and guiding him through the ins and outs of being a CFR. They've been braving the elements together, and managed to find a few precious minutes of dry weather to stop for a photo! ☁️ We're thrilled to have Kacper on board and can't wait to see the amazing work he'll do.
