The fantastic response to our most recent fundraising efforts means the school has now purchased a full „Community First Responders‟ pack of emergency life support equipment. We set about raising funds in support of the Lyth Valley First Responders Group back in the spring of 2010. Staff and pupils have been involved in a variety of activities including raffles, coffee mornings and cake sales. We have made bird nest boxes to sell at school and in the Witherslack Community Shop, we recently spent an afternoon at our local Morrisons store packing bags, and we were well supported by parents and visitors to school, during our annual open day where we sold refreshments, bird nest boxes and bedding plants.
All-in-all our efforts have raised over £600.
The pack of equipment will be officially presented to the local CFR group after the Easter holidays, however it is already available for use should a medical emergency occur. The equipment is to be kept at  school during term times and at a local address during holiday times.
