Submitted by benirvine on 10 December, 2011 - 08:27

Cycling is increasingly considered to be an effective method of delivering an emergency response in the police and ambulance services.

To find out more about this fascinating phenomenon, the public is invited to visit the St John Ambulance Cycle Response Unit on Friday 16th December at 6.30 p.m.

Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, visitors can see the fleet of bicycles the Cycle Response Unit uses and hear about the types of events the team attends, with background on the first aid training officers receive and the equipment carried. The team will also be giving a few examples of cycling-specific injuries and appropriate first aid.

The event will take place at Golden Lane just near the Barbican in the City of London. Full address details will be provided to confirmed attendees.

The cost of entry is £7.00, with all proceeds from the event split between charity Sustrans and St John Ambulance. Places are strictly limited so book early to avoid disappointment.

To buy your ticket, visit the Sustrans online shop.
