Yorkshire Ambulance Service New Recruits Wanted to Boost Life-Saving Scheme Yorkshire Ambulance Service NHS Trust is appealing to community-minded locals in Bamby Dun to become life-saving Community First Responders. Recruits will become part of an existing voluntary scheme, coordinated and supported by the ambulance service, which provides immediate medical care to members of the community in the vital minutes before an ambulance amves. Community First Responders are trained in basic life-support Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) and oxygen therapy. They are equipped with a kit which includes oxygen and an au~mated external defibrillator (AFD) to help patients in a medical emergency such as a heart attack, collapse or breathing difficulties. “In Bamby Dun there are just 2 active volunteers; between us we try to cover evenings and weekends. But we also have day time jobs and families, so we cannot offer cover at all times. We cover a 3 mile radius from Bamby Dun, which includes Kirk Sandall, Edenthorpe, Stainforth and Armthorpe”. Colin & Andrew - Volunteer responders Warren Bostock, Community Defibrillation Trainer at Yorkshire Ambulance Service, said: “We know that in many medical emergencies the first few minutes are cntical and if effective treatment can be performed within those minutes, lives can be saved and disabllsty reduced. “Being part of this initiative can be extremely rewarding and I would encourage anyone who may be interested in helping their local community to take on the role.” Yorkshire Ambulance Service will provide will training to successful applicants who must be over the age of 18, physically fit and hold a full driving licence for at least 12 months with no more than three penalty points. Candidates will also be subject to a Criminal Records Bureau check. For further information, please contact the Network Response team at the ambulance service, tel: 0845 120 3155 or email, responders@yas.nhs.uk **** BARNBY DUN PARK RANGERS The Children’s party was great fun and raised £214.90p.

So get your thinking caps on and start saving clothes that you have grown out of to make your scarecrow for the Art Festival later in the year, encourage your older brothers and sisters to join in as there are four age groups. +++ UP-DATE ON AMY KENNEDY (21.01.2012) We had a Wonderful Christmas, Amy was able to eat her Xmas dinner with us at the table, (the first time in three years). Amy is now able to transfer from her bed to her wheelchair with the help of Mum or Dad, hopefully Amy will soon have a wheelchair that she can move herself (Amy’s wheelchair is like a bed) but she will still need help in transferring her. Twice recently Amy has been over to stay with John and myself, her Daddy puts her into our bed and there she resides (like a Queen) for a couple of days with her sister Lucy. MAGIC!!!! Once again thank you all for your support Luv Ann & John Angel xxxxxxx +++ The Garden Villagers of Barnby Dun with Kirk Sandall Like the plants the group has now hibernated until February!
