Dunblane First Responders are a community charity that respond to 999 calls on behalf of the Scottish Ambulance Service. First Responders are volunteers who either live or work


in the community and who commit to regular shifts providing medical cover in Dunblane. Each volunteer receives initial advanced training by the ambulance service which bestows them with the knowledge and skills required for responding to medical emergencies. We feel very passionate about the work that we do and consider it a privilege to work alongside the community of Dunblane providing life-saving treatment and education.


Due to the recent development of the charity we are now looking to recruit new members who can support us regularly either in a non-operational role or as a community first responder.


You can also support us by donating anything you can that will help us cover our costs and ensure that we remain an integral part of the community. More information about Dunblane First Responders, including our meetings, statistics, events and much more can be found on our website; www.dunblanefirstresponders.com or our Facebook page www.facebook.com/DunblaneFR


If you are interested in becoming a member or wish to donate please contact us by email at: enquiries@ dunblanefirstresponders.com or alternatively call us on 07770 563552.


We look forward to welcoming new members and would like to thank the community for their continued support.
