Wells Bowls Club thanks local CFR group with a donation

​

South Western Ambulance Charity has received a kind donation from Wells Bowls Club to thank its volunteers for serving the local community.

​

Club President Jane Rossiter presented a cheque for £120 to the Wells Community First Responders (CFR) group on behalf of the charity at the club’s annual awards ceremony on Monday 30 September.

​

Jane said: “It is a pleasure to raise a small amount of money to repay the huge debt that is owed to all of these volunteers by our community".

​

The Wells CRF group has been running since 2002 and has three active members. Each responder provides approximately 15 hours of voluntary emergency cover each week for their community on top of their day jobs. They are supported by the Ambulance Service Responder Liaison Officer, Lidia Griguoli, who is a specialist paramedic.
