Members raise money for new equipment in 24-hour
CPR
challenge
Volunteers from Harrow and Harrow
Weald Divisions have raised more than £2000 for new training
equipment.
A long day
The dedicated team performed
CPR
for 24
hours, starting in the town centre and continuing in an
ambulance and then overnight at their headquarters.
As well as collecting donations, they trained
members of the public in basic first aid.
They raised a total of £2250,
which will be used to buy a new training
mannequin.
A real success
Rebecca Pollard, who took part in the event,
said: ‘The event was a real success, and we’re pleased to
have raised so much money.’
First aiders from Harrow and Harrow Weald
Divisions volunteer their time at many events, including Harrow in
Leaf, summer fairs and the Virgin London Marathon.
