LLANDUDNO Division of first aid charity, St John Cymru, has been awarded £500 to acquire equipment by Dŵr Cymru Community Fund
The grant has enabled the division to equip its ambulance with a vacuum mattress designed to immobilise patients with bone or spinal injuries.
Llandudno Divisional Officer in Charge, Stephen More, said: “The Dŵr Cymru donation has allowed us to ensure we provide the best possible care and first aid to those who encounter a neck, back or spinal injury.
“We’re proud to continue investing heavily in new equipment to provide high quality medical care to people at events in and around Llandudno”.
Volunteers at the division are currently fundraising to purchase a brand new vehicle in 2019 to allow them to continue to provide patients with high quality care.
