Hello ladies and gents, My name is James Thomas I'm from Swansea, south wales. My current job is a Patient transport driver for a private company (Trying for the Welsh ambulance when i get my C1 & D1). Also I have contacted my local Ambulance HQ to ask them about becoming a first responder in Swansea only to be told there is not one running.
So after hearing this I wasn't happy, I have been a member of St johns ambulance for years and have seen how our work helped the community and to hear that there is no CFR scheme running was terrible. So i have been told to send in a form and they would contact me to set a date to go and see them, when I do i am going to pop the idea on the table of me starting a scheme in Swansea.
Because i think we would benefit from it, I spend a lot of time around paramedics and you start to hear things about things, I think the job they do is awesome but they need more people and funding and we all know that's not going to happen. So reason for me joining this forum is to meet like minded people and to gain some knowledge and ask questions when i start this scheme up (hopefully), So thank you for listening to my rant lol and hope to speak to you all soon
