Here you go…….what is hurling in less than a minute
Next Sunday the All-Ireland hurling final will be on the BBC for the first time. It’s Cork vs Clare, a cracker of match in front of 82,400 screaming fans at Croke Park, for the highlight of the Irish sporting year. If you’ve never seen Hurling, here is a quick explainer…

January was our busiest month since starting in 2019. We’re glad that we have the capacity to attend so many incidents, but sad that people are experiencing these tough times in their lives. We responded to 23 incidents - totalling 1,165 responder minutes. Almost 20 hours. 1/2

*UPDATE* The AED cabinet is not locked - the keypad is not programmed. The cabinet can be opened by turning the handle to the right. This means it can be accessed immediately in the event of an emergency. Apologies for any confusion with the original post 😊

Have you heard of Message in a Bottle? @lionsclubs have a great initiative called Message in a Bottle, enabling first responders to have access to your medical information in the event of an emergency in your home. Some local pharmacies have them in stock for free. 1/2
