“The funds raised from this event will help St Andrew’s First Aid in our mission to provide everyone in the country with the highest standards in first aid skills, services and volunteering opportunities.
“We believe that no-one should suffer or die because they needed first aid and didn’t get it.
“St Andrew’s First Aid is grateful for the continued support from Robert and Gillian MacDonald and
Bar Yellow.”
