About us
We are a team of Community First Responders (CFRs) in Harpenden, England. We are volunteers trained by the East of England Ambulance Trust to attend certain types of emergency calls in the area where we live or work. Our aim is to reach a potential life threatening emergency in the first vital minutes before the ambulance crew arrives.
We believe in the power of community and the importance of taking action in times of crisis. Together, we can make a difference and save lives.
Our Mission
As Community First Responders, our primary objective is to offer prompt response to life-threatening emergencies and enhance the chances of survival for patients requiring urgent medical care. We understand the significance of time, and we are trained to provide timely assistance in the crucial minutes leading up to the arrival of an ambulance.
Our Vision
The training we receive from EEAST has equipped us with the necessary tools and knowledge to help create a safer future for everyone in our community. Our aim is to reach a potential life threatening emergency in the first vital minutes before the ambulance crew arrives.
