Welcome to the
Grimsby LIVES First Responder website.
As an additional frontline resource available to
the East Midlands Ambulance Service, we are volunteers that cover a large area
of Grimsby including Wybers Wood, Willows, Healing, Nunsthorpe, Yarborough Road, Cromwell
Road and the Littlecoates Road areas of town, we can also be called out to as
far as Immingham and Stallingborough.
We are totally self funded and therefore rely on
fund raising and kind donations from local people, business, and organisations
to help purchase equipment and keep the scheme operational.
Thank you for visiting our site
from all the Team,
Mick Grimsby LIVES Coordinator
Trained in Basic Life Support CPR and the use of
an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) we are dispatched to life-treating
emergencies in our local community by East Midlands Ambulance Control (EMAS).
Intermediate responders are called to RTA's, trauma, paediatric and
assisting the paramedic.
The Lincolnshire Integrated
Voluntary Emergency
Service (LIVES) is one of the largest charities
in the UK, with over 86 active groups.
The Grimsby LIVES Group is one of the busiest
attending more than 690 call outs a year.
This website aims to give
you more information on the role of
First Responders
and how we operate within your local community.
