A team of dedicated volunteers, that respond to medical emergencies & provide support to our community, through awareness training.
Part of the Hereford & Worcester Community First Responder Charity, our scheme in Ledbury has an operational area that stretches far from the town and out into the surrounding countryside parishes.
After a long hiatus, the Hereford & Worcester Community First Responder Scheme in Ledbury is back operational once again.
We have recently had our first recruits join the scheme, following their training with West Midlands Ambulance Service and looking forward to seeing them out and about around the area.
To get our team up and running again, we are being closely supported by our neighboring scheme in Ross-on-Wye. They have provided a fully equipped response vehicle on long term loan to us, to allow the CFRs to respond to emergencies within the Ledbury area.
Whilst our scheme is starting back up with this support, our own funds are very low.
We are looking for any support from the local community and business to help raise the funds to cover our costs such as:
Vehicle maintence, Uniform, Community training equipment and much more...
If you can help us out then please donate via our JustGiving campaign or get in touch.
Trained by West Midlands Ambulance Service to respond to emergency incidents, as volunteers, helping those most at need.
This part of the team dedicate hours on call in their personal and working lives, to respond in our response vehicle when an emergency is nearby.
Not only do these members respond to emergencies, they also help with all other aspects of our charity.
Fundraising, community education & suppporting defibrillators are just a few aspects...
Fundraising occurs all across the charity, and funds that are raised by each scheme are held for that area specifically.
10% from a donation goes into the charity central fund, to provide support to all schemes across the charity.
We rely on donations to continue our work within the community,
and thank you for all the support you give us.
