We've been travelling far and wide last week. Some of the team have been up in Shetland training new CFRs and updating our current CFRs. A busy week indeed and we have added more Community Cardiac Responders to the national pool of responders as well. Great effort by all and thanks for the warm welcome.

999 Day💚

🚑 Today we honour the incredible individuals who step forward in moments of need—not because they have to, but because they choose to. Our volunteer Community Responders are often the first to arrive, offering vital care, calm reassurance, and a lifeline when time is critical. You train hard, stay ready, and respond with compassion and professionalism- often balancing this role alongside your everyday lives. Your contribution is deeply valued, and your presence in our communities brings hope when it’s needed most. To every Community Responder, and all of our 999 colleagues- thank you. Your service is powerful, your impact is lasting, and your generosity speaks volumes 💚
