It was another festive evening for the team, this time at Wren’s Nest Primary School with Tina and Paul representing the charity and hating some festive fun too! Thank you Wren’s Nest! 🎄🎅🏻

Let’s meet Nat, Dudley CFR’s ‘Training Lead’ who brings his experience as a WMAS Paramedic to the team organising fabulous sessions for us to learn from at our monthly meetings. Thank you Nat!!

❤️ Our very own Dudley CFR volunteers were out leading the Smethwick Remembrance Sunday parade representing the wonderful Arrive Alive Charity. An honour and a privilege every year. Lest we forget.

💚 Let’s meet another member of the Dudley CFRs team - Stu! Stu is in his fourth year with the charity and continues to support his local community responding to 999 calls and teaching life saving skills at events! Thank you Stu!

A very exciting announcement from the team - the community support and spirit within Dudley is strong and we are delighted about our new partnership with RS Recovery! We look forward to working with you and are very grateful for your support of the volunteer work we do 🚨⚙️🧰

💚 September has seen the team once again putting in a huge amount of time and effort to support the local community. Excellent work team!

Often found with AEDs, Public Access Bleed Kits are getting increasingly accessible and contain life saving pieces of kit that can be used in cases of serious, life-threatening bleeding. Search for your nearest kits are and think about how you could improvise without one!

💚 Meet Brendan! One of our fabulous volunteers who brings his extensive clinical and teaching experience to the charity in his role responding and supporting team training! It has been wonderful to have Brendan on board since 2024 - thank you for all of your charity support!

💚⚽️ Following the fabulous Charity Football Match organised by MET Recruitment UK Ltd, an incredible £2100.66 was raised to support all that the team do! A huge thank you to all who were involved and who donated 💚

What a month July has been!! A huge amount of hours put in by the team - well done to all! 💚🚑

💚⚽️🚑 The team have had a super busy few weeks out and about in and around Dudley spreading the word about what we do and teaching CPR! We are very lucky to be MET Recruitment LTD chosen charity for this year and had a fab time at one of their most recent fundraising events!

💚 Let’s introduce another one of our fabulous volunteers - Stu! Stu is a dedicated member of the Dudley CFR team on a mission to teach as many people in Dudley CPR as he can - and is doing a wonderful job at it.

Kudos to Dan, our Safety & Sustainability Advisor 🌟 He volunteers as a First Responder with @DudleyCFRs. It costs £3000/year to keep their cars running, with no NHS or government funding 🚑 Dan's raising funds by completing @toughmudder and having a blast! Well done 👏

As part of our ‘Meet the Team’ series, let’s introduce ✨Dan✨ one of our dedicated volunteers and a key member of the Dudley CFR team!

In April, a fabulous 523 hours where volunteered by the Dudley CFR team in where we attended 142 emergency calls in our local area! The team are out and about responding in force again this May 💚

💚🐣 Everyone at Dudley CFRs would like to say a massive thank you to all those who purchased a ticket to our Easter Raffle helping us to raise over £500 to go towards keeping our ambulance cars on the road! All winners should have now been contacted by a member of the team.

We feel very fortunate to have accepted a £700 donation from the Gentlemen Songsters Choir following their charity concert at Springdale Church. Donations like these allow us to continue voluntarily responding to medical emergencies in our local community, we are so grateful!

💚 Over the coming weeks we will be introducing our dedicated volunteers who each play vital roles in making the Dudley CFR charity the life saving success it is! First, ✨Sarah✨ one of the charity’s co-leads who has supported Dudley CFRs passionately for over 3 years!
