An appeal has gone out for more volunteers to help an Island charity carry out lifesaving work.
Tonight, St John Ambulance starts a 16-week pathway programme to introduce people to the organisation and train them to become first-aiders.
Each year the charity helps to provide cover at some of the Island’s biggest events and runs the Community First Responder scheme.
Commercial development officer Phil Bennett says volunteers can give up time as and when they can to help ease the pressure (audio above):
