Using their own vehicles CFR’s are dispatched by Ambulance Control to 999 calls in their location with the expectation they can arrive before the Paramedics, providing initial emergency treatment - this does not delay dispatch of the Ambulance to the patient. Day to day life carries on as normal until the phone rings and they are dispatched to an emergency. The Responders carry equipment including (AED), medical oxygen, suction pumps and first aid kits. The bulk of the equipment has been funded by the NHS but funds still need to be raised for defibrillators and to replenish equipment.
