Objectives and activities We are volunteers who have been trained by the Scottish Ambulance Senlice to respond to medical emergencies in our local area whilst an ambulance is on it's way. The area we cover is Balmedie, Belhelvie, Blackdog, Potterton and Whitecairns in Aberdeenshire. We officially started responding on Saturday 3rd of March 2018. Our stated goals are: a) To enable volunteer First Responders to provide defibrillation, CPR and other life-saving interventions in accordance with their training. b) To work in partnership with the Scottish Ambulance Service to select, train and provide assessments for volunteer first responders throughout the Belhelvie Area. c) To aim to provide early life saving intervention where an emergency ambulan is unavailable or unable to reach the casualty within a reasonable response time. d) To aim to provide first responder cover 365 days a year in the communities where a first response scheme is in operation. e) To raise awareness of the need to establish the 'Chain of Survival, through early intervention as a means of increasing the chances of saving life.

Financial review Statement of the charity's policy on reserves We try to always carry at least £300 as a reserve to ensure we can pay Insuran costs. Details of any deficit No deficit. Donated facilities and services Balmedie Leisure Centre allow us to meet in one of their rooms on a monthly basis for free. Ewan Phipps kindly scrutinises our annual accounts
Future plans We plan to hold regular CPR / Defibrillator l First Aid awareness sessions in 3 or 4 venues in the local area throughout the calendar year, in the hope to dispel any inhibitions the public may have using PADS. Through maintaining existing CFR member's skill set and public interaction we hope to strengthen the team further and recruit more members. Our main fundraising focus for 2020 1202112022, will be for Public Access Defibrillators, with the aim of having at least 1 defibrillator in each village whilst maintaining existing PADS.
