Activities

'the saving of lives'
support the work of the Scottish Ambulance Service Community First Responders team centred on North Berwick. The charity has effectively been in suspension until the operational group returns to normal working. Since the beginning of the pandemic, when its operations were suspended, the operational group has reduced to one volunteer responder. Scottish Ambulance Service is committed to recruiting and training more volunteers, whereupon the charity will seek to support their activities.
Beneficiaries: 'Older People','People with disabilities or health problems','No specific group, or for the benefit of the community'
Objectives: 4.1 The charitable objectives of NBCFRs are to save lives by: a) Enabling our volunteer NBCFRs to be despatched by the SCOTTISH AMBULANCE SERVICE (hereafter referred to as SAS) control centre, to respond to appropriate calls. b) Bridging the gap from the time when a 999 call is made in the North Berwick area, and the arrival time of an emergency ambulance response. c) Only attending calls/incidents within the North Berwick agreed area, for which they have been trained, in accordance with the current SAS procedures. d) Working within the guidelines, policies and terms of agreements set by the SAS, for volunteering responders. e) Assisting the SAS where necessary with the selection, training and assessment of volunteer First Responders, as well as the provision of on-going training and assessments, as guided by the SAS. f) Aiming to provide North Berwick area with cover from NBCFRs, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. g) Working in association and where necessary with other relevant bodies, for example the Community Resilience and Emergency Planning Group.
