Aylsham and Holt Community First Responders

12/01/2026

As you have probably heard in the media, we are extremely busy and as volunteers this is doubly so for us.
We have been primarily used for category one calls which are life-threatening. We will get to you as quickly as we can.
Thank you for your understanding and support from the team.

We have just recieved a donation for £440 from Sami who organised events leading up to Christmas. Thanks also to , Madelines, Co-Op, Tescos, JLH autos and Kinnertons.
We appreciate all of your support especialy at the moment as our responders have been sent to many calls in the area due to the cold weather and snow.

This is Eirian who is a First Responder in the Holt group, she is also a full time ECA (Ambulance) crew. Today she was working with the Air Ambulance.
Could you make a difference in the Holt or Aylsham areas?
Who knows what being a First Responder might lead onto.

Aylsham Responders today working with our colleagues and air ambulance.

It has sadly been a very busy month in our area, we are looking for new members to join us. Full training given and you can be proud to be part of the Ambulance Service and maybe go on to join the trust full time as a paramedic (as several of our team have already done).

Sharon Coggins and Sammi are raising funds for us tomorrow in the town hall by selling these sweets and have decorated the tree that can be seen in the church.
They have put so much time into preparing all of these hand made items. All materials and sweets have been donated by local businesses.
Aylsham has some truly amazing people!

Holt Community First Responders are at the garden centre raising awareness about their role and collecting donations to help with their role.

HCFR are trained volunteers who provide immediate medical assistance in the Holt area, reaching emergencies like cardiac arrests and breathing difficulties before an ambulance arrives. They use their own vehicles, are dispatched by ambulance services, and aim to stabilize patients until professional crews take over. The role involves initial life support skills and is a rewarding way for locals to give back to the community.

Any questions please contact the Garden Centre team on 01263 711574 or info@holtgardencentre.co.uk and they will be happy to help
