We all know their symbol and see the great work they do at emergencies around the globe. However, did you know they offer many other services? Here in Quedgeley there is a Red Cross centre, it is called a Hub and forms part of the Nationwide equipment supply locations. The one in Quedgeley offers Wheelchairs of all sizes, ancillary equipment, walking aids, and Toileting equipment. Similar to many charities they are unable to provide equipment free of charge, but the cost of hiring is often a lot less cost than buying new. Often things are only required for a short time, possibly after an operation. So why BUY-HIRE. At present it can only open on a Tuesday, the reason of that is its run by volunteers. However if more people could spare a few hours a week, they would love to open it every day. So are there people in Hardwicke, Quedgeley and Kingsway that would like to join the small existing team and enable the Red Cross to run this much-needed service. The right person would need basic I.T. skills, like meeting people, it is local, it is indoors, it is warm, has a kitchen and toilets. And FULLBACKUP and training is provided The Red Cross has an on-line shop of many things at redcross.org.uk. If you think you can help contact the Quedgeley base on either 01452 726688 or 01452 881613. Both are answer machines but you will soon be contacted.
