Roses are red, Violets are blue,
Our love for CFRs, forever true,
They rush to aid, in moments askew,
Heartbeats restored, by their skill they brew.

The #Stardust nightclub in the early hours of #ValentinesDay 1981
We remember that tragic and fateful night
In particular, we remember the families, friends, survivors and local #community on this anniversary
Well done to all our new recruits for completing their CFR-C training yesterday, which is part of the training required to become an active member.

January was our busiest month since starting in 2019. We’re glad that we have the capacity to attend so many incidents, but sad that people are experiencing these tough times in their lives.
We responded to 23 incidents - totalling 1,165 responder minutes. Almost 20 hours.

This evening, we held an information session for those who are interested in becoming a Community First Responder. Many thanks as always goes to @malahiderfc for providing the room and tea/coffee.

Two years ago this week I got my diagnosis of Motor Neurone. Along with my lost voice, now I depend on a feeding tube, and from now on I will be using a wheelchair. But nothing is going to stop me helping groups who extend the hand of friendship while I have a breath in my body.
