Well done to five of the @irishredcross, Tralee, youth, who began their First Aid Responder Training Course in @ashehoteltralee, #Tralee, this weekend.
Special word of thanks to their Tutor, Charlie, who is doing fantastic work as he guides them through the PHECC syllabus. ๐
A great day today as members of the @irishredcross#Tralee branch began their First Aid Responder Course. Great credit to them for giving up their free Saturday to take part in this vital training and to their Tutor for the day, Charlie, who guided them through the syllabus.
For our May #throwbacktuesday, we go back to the 1960's. It is a photo of a group from the @irishredcross#Tralee branch and we believe that it was taken in the Central Technical School.
We know some of the faces but can't name them all, so all suggestions will be appreciated.
