Sawbridgeworth Community First Responders

Website

Sawbridgeworth Community First Responders We are entirely funded by donations. The ambulance service provides free training and assessment, and start-up equipment, but groups are self-funded.

We are Sawbridgeworth Community First Responders (CFRs) – dedicated volunteers trained by the East of England Ambulance Service to respond to 999 emergencies in Sawbridgeworth and the surrounding villages. About Sawbridgeworth Community First Responders
Community First Responders are activated by the East of England Ambulance Service to attend emergency calls at the same time that an ambulance resource is dispatched, and often arrive first because they're so close to a call. Volunteers are trained in the use of oxygen therapy, CPR and use of automated external defibrillator (AED) which allows them to give life-saving care until the ambulance arrives.

🚨 We are currently extremely busy

We're experiencing a high number of calls and many of our ambulances are waiting to hand over patients at hospital.

🀳 Please only call 999 for serious or life-threatening emergencies. For anything else use https://111.nhs.uk/ or call 111.

πŸ•˜ If waiting for an ambulance, only call back if the patient's condition changes, or you no longer need the ambulance.

Thank you for helping us ensure we get to those who need us.
