Katy, one of our responders, is being interviewed by @itvanglia about what it is like being a CFR and why it is worth volunteering for us. @eeast_cfrs @EastEnglandAmb
A busy month for us (RZ555 & NZ5552)

The scheme relies on donations to keep responding, funding our fuel and equipment. A Christmas donation from the @the_mdu will go towards a new kit bag. Thank you!

Our Community First Responders had a busy November! Thank you to each and every one of you for your time and commitment. Thank you also to your families for the understanding they must show as you rush out of the door. #CFR #WeAreEEAST @EastEnglandAmb @EEAST_Chair @EEASTCRMLead

Flu fighter volunteers from @CambridgeSCFR Jan & Tom still smiling after their jabs! 💉 🚑#flufighter #FluSeason #choosewell @EEAST_CFRS @EEAST_CFR @EEASTCRMLead @PaulM1962 @EastEnglandAmb
In the last two months scheme responders have attended 47 calls, arriving before the ambulance in 91%.
Over the last two years our volunteers have given over 4000 hours of their time and attended well over 500 calls. Here's a breakdown of the types of calls attended.
During February scheme responders gave 150 hours of their time, attending 16 casualties. Half were category 1 (immediately life threatening) including two cardiac arrests. In 80% they arrived in the vital few minutes before an ambulance arrived. @EastEnglandAmb @EEAST_CFRS
