St John Ambulance Surrey Community First Responders are offering people the opportunity to abseil off the top of Guildford Cathedral.

The sponsored abseil is on September 25th, 2010. The aim is to raise money to equip and expand the Community First Responder service across Surrey. Responders are trained first aiders equipped with defibrillators, who are on call within their local area.

South East Coast Ambulance Service Control alerts them to an emergency in their local patch at the same time as dispatching an ambulance, and the responder can be on the spot in the first crucial minutes, dispensing life saving first aid while the ambulance is still on its way.

There are only 60 places available for the abseil so book early to claim a place. Volunteers aged 16 and over are asked to pay £25 as a deposit and raise minimum sponsorship of £150. There will be prizes for the highest sponsorship. Why not take the plunge It will be an unforgettable experience!
