The First Response Scheme at RAF Boulmer provides unpaid volunteers from HM Forces who give up their own free time to provide a dynamic First Responder Service to the community. The volunteers, once trained ‘log on’ at their duty Station in one of the charities specially equipped cars. From that point on they are at the disposal of the North East Ambulance Control and may be positioned on standby at any point within Northumberland where a need can be identified. When activated to a 999 emergency call the First Responder respond to the incident under emergency conditions, which they will have received training in how to do. This combined with the dynamic positioning of the vehicle normally leads to significant time savings in arriving on scene before the Ambulance. This time saving can and has saved lives! The rapid intervention of these volunteers is also utilised in other emergencies where their response would be significantly faster than that of another frontline asset. This scheme is part of a national charity called ‘First Response’ which provides similar schemes to Ambulance services across the United Kingdom. First Response receives no funding from the NHS and relies on the kind donations from people like you! Please support this charity by doing your shopping through ‘easy fundraising’. You never know; one day your life could be saved by First Response!
