We had the pleasure of work with Newark and Sherwood District Council Sconce & Devon Park for stage 4 of the Lloyds Bank Tour of Britain - welcoming the bikes into Newark we had at high 18 medical staff on hand! Only minor injuries and life the team to deal with (1/3)
Ahead of Lloyds Bank Tour of Britain reaching Newark, we had our cycle unit checked over for free by ShimanoMTB with lots of other bikes & their owners who visited - we also had 4 members at Southwell as the race passed through the town (2/3)
We also worked closely with East Midlands Ambulance Service NHS Trust to cover the area affected by the road closures, great to see many turn out to welcome Lloyds Bank Tour of Britain into the park after a days racing! Our cycle unit was also captured in action on the highlights program! (3/3)
Sunday we had a team Newark Showground for the Curry’s GXO National Distribution centre fun day! From bouncy castles, fun fair attractions and live music, it was all going on! A chance for everyone to let their hair down and attend with family members!
Sunday, teams took to the water for the Children's Bereavement Centre & Beaumond House Hospice Care Dragon Boat Festival! Teams took part in different heats before the final! Accompanied with food, drink, entertainment, bouncy castles & games!
Sunday we also had an early start Newark Showground for the Auto Jumble! A wet start before the sun come along! A good turn out however with a very quiet day for our members on duty!
We attended the The Emergency Services Show on Wednesday - all the latest kit show with discussions take place with suppliers and potential new suppliers to improve our services. Great to have a look over BVS Group latest ambulance which we look to purchase in 2025
Just as it returned to our TVs n Saturday, our members covered the BrownhillsMotorhomes Strictly Weekend! Dancing under the lights for two evenings along with some food and drink and of course a motor home or two to look round!
Saturday & Sunday we were back at Newark Showground for 2 events - the Pike Anglers Club Convention and the Newark Kit Car Festival. Both events attracted good crowds on a nice warm sunny day.
We returned last week with our operational training, where Neil was presented with a prize for selling lots of raffle tickets! We also had a visit to Balderton Day Nursery with our vehicle & mini crew. With a team also covering the Patric Motor Spares show Newark Showground
