Community First Responders are volunteers who save lives in their local town or village throughout Yorkshire.
They reassure patients prior to the arrival of the ambulance.

They provide lifesaving care if the patient’s condition is serious.

Very often the role they play is one of reassurance. In instances where someone has chest pains, simply giving them oxygen can make a big difference. In extreme cases they can perform CPR (cardio-pulmonary resuscitation) or use a defibrillator to restart someone’s heart.
