22 people from the village attended the course at St Mark’s School, where 6 volunteers from First Responders came to give the group training in resuscitation - CPR and the use of a defibrillator and what to do if someone is choking. It was a very useful and informative session and was very well presented, with a couple of short films and then hands on experience of the technique necessary to perform CPR.We are very grateful to First Responders for giving us the support firstly in obtaining the defibrillator and also in training us how to use it. Although they are called Endmoor First Responders they will attend calls in Natland which is in their designated area.
They are having a fundraising Cream Tea to raise funds on 26th May at 2pm to 4pm in Endmoor at Marwood, Gatebeck Road. The tickets will be £1.50. They are entirely self financing.
