A Cycling Sportive fundraiser to purchase defibrillators for Carntogher First Responders will take place on Sunday 11th June. Carntogher First Responders assist the Ambulance Service with rapid response in areas where Ambulance Response times are a challenge. We have 10 First Responders operating in the Carn region (Slaughtneil/Swatragh/Glenullin/Upperlands/Maghera) with only 6 Defibs covering an area of 78 square miles Community First Responder Schemes (arcgis.com) . We received 83 call outs in 2022 helping the community whenever possible. Some of our defibrillators are beyond their recommended lifespan and require replacement. The fundraising event is a 100km cycle from Carn to Coast being run in conjunction with Carn Wheelers.

Carntogher First Responders serve the local community and would be delighted to receive any donation towards this worthy local case
