Did you know the target time for an ambulance on a Category one call is 7 minutes (Life-threatening calls.)

Sometimes it might take longer. Why not contact us for a First Aid awareness session for peace of mind? plymouth@sja.org.uk or look at the life-saving advice from https://www.sja.org.uk/get-advice/

Day 5 of Advent: This year we have 5 new Emergency Responders trained in our Network!

You'll see them out and about on events, hopefully they never have to use the skills they learnt, but rest assured they went through extensive testing to ensure they are prepared for any emergency!

Well done all!
