ThamesValleyER

British Red Cross Emergency Response service, providing practical and emotional support to those in crisis in the Thames Valley and surrounding areas.

[ThamesValleyER @ThamesValleyER]

Could you help support people in crisis? Why not sign up as an Emergency Response or Community Reserve Volunteer? Only one requires regular time commitments, but both provide valuable training.

Two callouts to domestic fires this morning in Oxfordshire. Big thank you to the Oxford and Bletchley teams for responding so early this Sunday morning to support the people involved.

Come on down to @WhitleyWoodFS and see what our #EmergencyResponse service can offer. There’s also @ThamesVP & the Rapid Relief Team with burgers and hotdogs!

Our volunteers are handing out information packs in Coronation Hall in #Wainfleet.

The packs contain leaflets on dealing with the aftermath of the flooding, sorting out insurance and dealing with a crisis.

Next time a crisis happens you can help. Visit https://t.co/Y9sdl0O2HG.

Volunteering for a great claws!

Can Michal purrr-suade you to become a #CRV & help your local litter if a crisis occurs?

Purrrhaps you could be a copycat & join the @BritishRedCross as part of the world’s largest humanitarian organisation.

By sharing this film this #refugeeweek, you can show that, like us, you believe that #EveryRefugeeMatters.

Hectic day at HQ with the mapping team, innovation team, UK crisis response team AND a “culture of Red Cross” workshop.

#Reading team meeting tonight. Thinking hard about the quiz I’ve given them on our psychosocial & resilience framework to enable us to support people #Irememberedtoaskconsentthis time #gdpr

[ThamesValleyER @ThamesValleyER]

So today was great. Sun shining all day. Windows open ☀️😎
Gets to the end of the day & I go to close the window... it falls out of it’s frame & thumps me on the head. The worst part? I’ve got to report it & name the rest of the office as witnesses to my stupidity/calamity 👍👍👍

[ThamesValleyER @ThamesValleyER]

Really enjoyed my #Oxford #EmergencyResponse team meeting tonight.
P.S. Guess who forgot to ask for consent about pictures 🙄#GDPR
