Bringing vital skills to the bush

 


Julie:
One of the issues of living in a remote part of the state is that if an accident occurs you can be a long way from help and to go anywhere involves extensive travel. So basic First Aid is a vital skill that people in the bush need. Red Cross has made a number of Senior First Aid and CPR courses available to rural communities affected by drought at no cost to the participants. This is a great service and 20 people in Hillston took advantage of the offer to increase their skills. It is programs such as this that can make a real difference to life in the bush.
