feature Firefighters to the Rescue Local smiling faces arrive complete with a fire engine to the surprise of Ann and David Cook, which turned out to be just what the doctor ordered! Trisha Fermor reports FEARING SHE might be having a heart attack Ann Cook dialled 999 but had no idea help would come from four “big, strapping” firefighters. Suffering from excruciating pain in her back she expected paramedics to arrive in an ambulance but was amazed to see help initially coming from a different source – the Cranbrook retained fire station in the High Street. Mrs Cook, 70, who lives not far away in Oatfield Drive, Cranbrook, said: “The emergency services said the ambulance was coming but I was amazed when I saw a fire engine pull up outside and four big strapping lads came in.” Mrs Cook, who is married to parish councillor David Cook, said the whole experience of being treated by the men had been “very professional”. The incident became more surreal when it turned out that one of them had been a friend of her son’s at Cranbrook Primary School, another had been a pupil at Cranbrook School where Cllr. Cook taught, and another was married by him when he was a clergyman. “I was amazed,” said Mrs Cook, “when the men told me they had once been out six times on one shift carrying out similar medical emergencies. The whole thing was made much easier by their friendliness and the fact we knew some of them.” An ambulance did turn up and Mrs Cook is still undergoing exploratory tests with regard to her back pain. A spokesperson for Kent Fire and Rescue said: “The firefighters are called first responders and we do support the ambulance service. Cranbrook will have crews who are trained but they are not replacements for the ambulance. The Cranbrook crew do have a defibrillator at the station and also on the fire engine. We do support SECAmb for certain lifethreatening emergency calls when we send the nearest available responders.” join the crew Professional Property Refurbishment Alterations & Construction COMMITTED TO LONG TERM CUSTOMER FRIENDSHIPS, NOT ONLY CUSTOMER SATISFACTION Kent Fire and Rescue is appealing for more people to join retained crews across the Weald, particularly Cranbrook, Hawkhurst and Marden.
