| James | 32 | Team Manager for London Ambulance Service 🚑 | Intersted in Incident Response to Major Incidents and EPRR | Emergency Responder for BHECCS |
Our volunteers have had a busy Bank Holiday Weekend so far and have responded to a variety of emergency calls for @EastEnglandAmb
We receive no government funding - our crews are only able to respond by receiving charitable donations. Please visit our website to donate 🙏
Both our Critical Care and Emergency Responder volunteer teams are providing daily cover across Beds & Herts this Easter Bank Holiday weekend 🐣
Working in partnership with colleagues from EEAST our crews are responding to some of the highest acuity calls across the region.
🚨 NEW: The Government will fund 4 replacement ambulances after those belonging to a Jewish community service were set on fire in Golders Green this morning
It’s been great to welcome our 3rd cohort of ERs to their inductions this weekend 🚑🚨
The growth of our team also sees the introduction of BHER03, which will be based in Bedfordshire. Our thanks go to @t_riple9 for their ongoing support of the BHECCS fleet 👊
@EastEnglandAmb
Yesterday marked a big moment for our ERs - 2000 activations by @EastEnglandAmb in just over 2 years 🙌
We’re not stopping here:
➡️ New ER induction sessions this weekend
➡️ Our third ER vehicle launching in the next month
Thanks to our volunteers and to you, our supporters 👏
Back at our Edmonton station today where I was based about 25 years ago for our penultimate autumn engagement roadshow. Looking forward to some good discussion and hearing about what matters to our people.
We’re committed to providing our volunteers with a wide variety of CPD opportunities, like today’s training with @TfL
If you’d like to get involved with our ER scheme, applications will close at 23.59 on Sunday 23rd November
