Bleed kits for Badgeworth

County Councillor Richard Stanley has allocated funding to community projects using the County Council's ‘Grassroots Neighbourhood Fund’.

The fund is designed to improve health and wellbeing, helping to create resilient communities. Bleed kits give residents access to emergency care before the emergency services arrive.

Cllr Stanley (GCC, Severn Vale) says, “13 bleed kits have been set up across the region and we're working on setting up 2 more local to Badgeworth.”

“I feel extremely fortunate to have allocated some of the funds to more areas across our area.”

Local campaigner Sid Maher added, “We hope these kits are never needed, but in an emergency, having one nearby could make the difference between life or death.”

"These bleed kits will help make Badgeworth a safer place to live."
