The Callan First Reponders are holding a collection this weekend

Callan First Responders will be holding their annual collection on Saturday, July 13 and Sunday, July 14.

Members and volunteers will be at Top Shop, West Street and SuperValu, Green Street.

Last April, Callan First Responders were in a position to install their first AED Public access defibrillator outside SuperValu. This would not have been possible without the wonderful supported by Dermot McCabe of SuperValu who supplies the power and Lynch Fencing who sponsor the outside cabinet.

Community support such as this and your donations, helps achieve Callan First Responders goals. This year they aim to purchase a second AED for Callan in another public place. In the case of cardiac arrest combining CPR and an AED can double if not triple the chances of survival. 

Callan first Responders would be so thankful for your support. So go out of your way Saturday and Sunday next to support these wonderful people who live in our community.
