The trucker who could save your life
Jeremy Fisher, a haulage driver of Greeenroyd, Greetland, has been helping heart-attack victims by giving immediate care to people struck down by cardiac arrest in Calderdale.
Jeremy volunteers to be a community first responder, which means he is typically the initial on the scene to help folks in Greetland who suffer heart attacks.
Soon after five years involved in the service, Mr. Fisher estimated that the number of lives he has saved runs into double figures.
Jeremy has saved many people’s lives as a community very first responder
His contributions have been recently recognised by Yorkshire Ambulance Service with a James Lee award, an accolade celebrating the achievements of Yorkshire’s community initial responders.
Jeremy said after the award ceremony at Leeds United’s stadium: “I was pleased and shocked to receive the award. I had no concept before the night that I would win so it was a excellent surprise. I’m a lorry driver by profession but I volunteer whenever I get the chance. It’s definitely the most fulfilling thing I’ve ever carried out.”
