⚡ Do you know where your nearest defib is?

Take a minute today to check where the nearest public defibrillator is to your workplace, sports club or community venue. Then tell someone else on your team where it is.

Anyone can use a public defibrillator. Switch it on and follow the voice prompts. In a suspected cardiac arrest, call 999 straight away. The call handler can guide you through CPR and help locate an accessible defibrillator.

Practising with a training defib can help you feel more confident when it matters. Explore first aid training for you or your team at www.myfirstaidtraining.co.uk.

🎪🎶 That’s a wrap on Lindisfarne Festival 2026! 🩺⛺

It’s been great to be back! 🙌

Our Medical Centre has been a bustle of activity all weekend, with our teams dealing with everything from medical emergencies to minor injuries, illnesses, bumps, scrapes and the occasional festival mishap! 🩹

It’s certainly kept us busy, but we’ve loved being back and playing our part in helping keep everyone safe while they enjoyed an amazing weekend. 💚

A huge thank you to our fantastic medical and welfare teams who have worked incredibly hard around the clock throughout the festival, and to all the teams, organisers and services we’ve worked alongside.

And thank you to everyone who popped in to see us to say thank you! 🙏

Most importantly, we hope everyone had a fantastic time, made some brilliant memories and is heading home safely.

Lindisfarne Festival 2026 — over and out! 🎶🩺

Until next time… 👋

📍 From London to Lindisfarne! 🚑💜

What a difference a week makes!

Last weekend, our teams were right in the heart of Notting Hill Carnival, providing welfare support at one of the UK’s biggest and busiest events.

This week, we’re heading north — all the way to the incredible Lindisfarne Festival! 🎪🎶

From the streets of London to the stunning Northumberland coast, our teams will once again be working throughout the event, this time providing medical and welfare services to help keep festival-goers safe and supported.

It’s a pretty good example of just how varied life at XL Team can be — different locations, different crowds and different challenges, but the same commitment to looking after people.

You don’t have to wait until something becomes a crisis before asking for help.
