Big turn-out for local councillor's life-saving courses
The Journal
|October 14, 2025
LIFESAVING skills are being rolled out further across a Newcastle community, after a newly-trained first aider's vital intervention to help an elderly neighbour.
In June this year, Jayne Davies helped save the life of a woman who she found had collapsed, just days after she had attended a course at the Gosforth Residents Association.
After her "heroic" actions, local councillor Doc Anand has donated his monthly council salary to pay for more first aid sessions delivered by medics at Frontline Medical and Training.
After the latest course last weekend, the Conservative councillor said that more than 20 people had now become qualified first-aiders thanks to the training.
