As always pleasure helping out @Community_NAS today on day one of the instructors course in Limerick. Some excellent new instructors will soon be joining the CFR instructors faculty to improve the chain of survival around the country. Great to work with Amanda, Pat and Ger.
Great to meet members of a number of CFR schemes today in Limerick for their instructor course being led by our community engagement officers @ARoss_NASNL_CEO and @PatMccarthy64 .
