Meet the team 🚑

👋 Hi everyone! I’ve been a Community First Responder for just short 2 years now but never got round to introducing myself. I’m Paddy, and when I’m not out on call I work as an HGV driver. It’s a privilege to help support our community and be part of such a great team. 🚑💚

🕊️ Today is International Overdose Awareness Day. 🕊️

We pause to remember the lives lost, support those grieving, and stand with our community in hope and action.

Our first responders are trained and equipped with naloxone kits – a life-saving tool that can reverse the effects of an opioid overdose. 💜

Together, we can help reduce stigma, spread awareness, and save lives.

Kevin leads the Community First Responder team in our area and has been doing so since 2022. In his spare time he enjoys flying, the outdoors and reading. Interesting fact; when he was a soldier his drill Sgt nicknamed him Beethoven due to his hairdo and love of music, the irony.
