Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>This September, I'm climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro to raise funds for the L.I.V.E.S Charity, who I am a First Responder for.&nbsp;As those of you who know me will understand, this type of physical activity is unexpected! That said, if Chris Moyles can do it.....</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>First Reponders are volunteers who are called by the Ambulance Service control room and arrive ahead of the ambulance. We provide initial patient assessment, treatment&nbsp;and life support before the ambulance or paramedic arrives.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Outside of the major towns and cities&nbsp;an ambulance may be 45 minutes away, a delay which&nbsp;could&nbsp;be life threatening for someone with a serious medical condition, such as heart attack, stroke, breathing difficulties or with a serious injury.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>The LIVES Charity provides training and equipment&nbsp;for this valuable service. They receive no government funding -&nbsp;Please help support them.</p> <p>You can see how&nbsp; my training is&nbsp;progressing and follow us live during the trek&nbsp;on <a href="http://www.hagworthingham.org/">www.hagworthingham.org</a></p>
