Great response to our last post - if your still interested in getting involved complete the link below to find out more about being a first responder in Kells.

As restrictions are easing - we are aiming to start back at getting Kells First Responder off the ground before the year end.

What is a First Responders?

A first responder is a local volunteer who has been trained in dealing with and attending life threatening 999 calls in the Kells and district community. When set up it will be linked with the National Ambulance Service and when a 999 call is made, both an ambulance and local first responders will be dispatched. These responders will provide the essential life-saving treatment in those first few minutes of arriving on scene while waiting on the ambulance.
