Folks we urgently need your help!

Roundwood Laragh Cardiac First Responders are Volunteers serving the greater Roundwood, Laragh, Moneystown and Annamoe areas since January 2005 in association with NAS (National Ambulance Service). We provide 24/7 cover, year 'round and have a dedicated team of 16 CFRs. Our Volunteers do monthly training and regular upskilling. We cover a 9 mile radius from Annamoe Bridge in every direction!

We came back online with NAS exactly two months ago, after a long stand-down during the Covid pandemic. Since going live, we have responded to TWELVE emergency 999 calls made by our neighbours in the community. That's a callout every 5 days (before Covid we would have 1 or 2 callouts a month). I'm sure you can agree that this is an exceptional increase.

We currently receive NO grant funding of any type. We must urgently fundraise to replace outdated equipment and to buy replacement parts - AED pads, Batteries etc. Currently we have €0 in our bank account.We would very much appreciate any donation you can make!Donate to Roundwood Laragh CFR Group
