💪 A Huge Thank You to Our Patrick’s Hill Heroes! 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️
Yesterday we were honoured to receive a cheque for €2,035 from Ned Ramsell and his incredible team, who bravely took on the challenge of running up Patrick’s Hill to raise vital funds for East Cork Community First Responders.

Your determination, spirit, and generosity have made a real difference — every euro helps us continue providing lifesaving care across our community.

To everyone who donated, cheered them on, or helped spread the word — thank you. Your support keeps our responders trained, equipped, and ready to help when it matters most.

Today we’re proud to show off our new East Cork Community First Responders uniforms — a fresh, modern look that gives our volunteers a unique identity and sets us apart from other emergency services and CFR schemes.

This isn’t your typical yellow high‑viz.
Our new kit is high‑quality, weather‑resistant, and built for day‑and‑night protection, ensuring our responders can work safely and comfortably in every condition East Cork throws at us.

This upgrade was made possible through generous support from Cork County Council and the Local Enhancement Grant, whose funding allows us to keep improving the safety and professionalism of our team.

A huge thank you to Joanna McLernon Coomey for capturing these fantastic photos — they really show who we are: a committed, community‑driven team ready to respond whenever we’re needed.

And while not everyone could be in the pictures today, every member of East Cork CFR plays an essential role in keeping our community safe. These uniforms represent all of us.

A huge thank you from all of us at East Cork Community First Responders! 💚
Under the watchful eye of Father Mathew on Patrick Street, 11 brave souls took on the infamous 400‑metre challenge — running up Patrick’s Hill with its maximum gradient of 25% and a climb of 42 metres. Nothing was going to stop this incredible group from raising vital funds for our organisation, and they absolutely smashed it.

A special word of thanks to Ned Ramsell for organising the event so seamlessly, and to Timmy Mulcahy for generously sponsoring the trophies.
Huge appreciation also to Vince Crotty for supplying water, fruit, and Marsbars to keep everyone fuelled.
And of course, thank you to the runners — and their brilliant supporters — who showed up at 8am on a Sunday morning with energy, commitment and community spirit. Your support means more than you know.
