Dear Editor, Using some of our Ward Initiative monies, Cllr Colin Blackburn and Cllr June Player, the Independent Councillors for Westmoreland Ward, have had a Bleed Kit (to stop blood loss) installed next to the Defibrillator at the entrance to the Oldfield Park Baptist Church Hall, in Moorland Road.
Bleed Kits are lifesaving medical supply packs that are designed to be easy to use for when someone has severe blood loss. Instructions for use are clearly given on the container.
Whilst we hope that it will not be needed, it is good to know where there is one in our Ward, just in case.
Regards Colin Blackburn(Cllr) and June Player(Cllr).
