Next Defib Training Session Tuesday 29 July 2014
Defib Training has been arranged for Tuesday evening 29 July, 7 – 9 pm at the new Portsmouth Ambulance Station.
There is no allocated parking as far as I know, but parking is much easier in the Industrial Park at this time of day so you should be able to park quite close to the Ambulance Station.
If you didn’t attend last time, but would like to attend this time, you are very welcome. I have asked our trainer Andy if he will cover basic CPR as well the defib training.
Whilst we do not charge for this training, donations are very welcome and will contribute towards the cost.
The address is:
Portsmouth Ambulance Station
Northarbour Rd
Portsmouth
PO6 3TL
.
Please would you confirm to me ASAP if you wish to attend the session.
Many thanks for your support.
