Reminder today that we have a few of the team having CPR and AED awareness. Come meet some of the team, hear what we do for the Community and even how you can be part of it, even roles behind the scene if you prefer.

Please note: that there is no parking at the station, its still an active station, even though its hosting. Avoid dropping off or picking up on the front court yard (in front of the roller doors where they leave from). Roads are still busy so keep your child/ren safe while crossing the roads, and that West School Road is also the road to the Scottish Ambulance Service Dundee Station so please be wary where and how your parking if using that road, please allow plenty of room around the entrance to the stations for the ambulances to turn and avoid any turn in the roads near there to prevent the ambulances getting to jobs. Thank you.

Look forward to seeing you there.

We attended Liff Primary School's Summer Fair a few weekends back and we got these cards as a thank you for coming. It was great to come along and see many (not just the pupils) taking on the challenge of doing some CPR and some of them even wanting to know more. Its these wee hands that could be saving lives in the future so its great to see them interact and get involved. Thanks for the invite. Thank you to our friend Gillian Thomson from GT FIRST AID for her support.

Shared with permission from todays Forthill Primary School's Summer Fayre. Two people performing CPR and doing a change over. This os great work by the two. Smooth changing over limits the time we are off the chest, it allows good CPR to continue while one rests slightly. Brilliant work by all who stopped by.
