I thought last nights meeting 13/05/08 at Bridlington Town Hall was a huge success, I gave it plenty of prior advertisement with Television, Radio & the Newspapers; I hope it will bring a great response to the Defibrillator program were we have a good response from the general public of Bridlington

Doctor Hickson Station Approach Surgeries was very interested along with other groups

The meeting was well attended by those who were anyone of importance; Police, RNLI, PCT, St. John's, Dr. Hickson, Community wardens, Councillors 8, Mayor of Bridlington, Coast Guards and members of the Public.

All in all I believe it was a huge success

Please keep in touch
