Kilcar Parish Council say they were delighted to host an important initial ‘First Responders’ meeting on Thursday evening, June 12, in the Parish Hall.
The purpose of the meeting was to re-establish in the community a 'First Responders Group'.
The meeting was attended by members of Comhairle Paróiste Chill Chartha, Mr John McShane, Community Engagement Officer HSE National Ambulance Service and Mrs Yvonne McGinley from the Glencolmcille First Responders.
The meeting was opened by the Chairman of the Parish Council Mr Martin Hegarty followed by a power-point presentation and talk by Mr McShane followed by a question and answer session.
Mrs McGinley then followed up with a talk and an overview of how the Glencolmcille First Responders group was set up, what was involved and a general overview of how the group functions.
A number of people expressed interest on the night of joining the new First Responders group, however, more participants are invited to join this worthwhile and important initiative in the parish of Kilcar.
Anyone interested in attending the next meeting should contact the Parish Council secretary Mr Kevin Ferry through email at [email protected] or any Parish Council member.
A venue and date for the next meeting is to be confirmed in the next few weeks.
