Spending an evenjng getting to grips with new @stjohnambulance.bsky.social Deputy County Commissioner things.
Firstly joining a strategy drop in session to see where things are heading, following by an introduction tl the new managers manual.

seems an update to my @stjohnambulance.bsky.social email signature is in order

After 13 long but amazing years in the world of operations, it appears to be time for something new

Happy to be confirmed as one of the Deputy County Commissioners for Staffordshire, Shropshire & Wolverhampton

Day 5 of #kabaddiworldcup2025 in #Walsall at @wlvuni.bsky.social campus. @stjohnambulanceire.bsky.social is providing the medical cover to all the competitors & attendees. Working alongside @wolvescouncil.bsky.social to deliver a safe event. Well done to all the teams taking part today. #Fantastic

Just because the event took up 14 hours yesterday doesn't mean it's all done and dusted.
Today for me & Naill is spent moving the vehicle back from Rugeley to Newark
All in all since Friday a grand totally of 411 miles driven for @stjohnambulanceire.bsky.social to ensure 4x4 cover on the event

21 years ago today I officially became a volunteer with @stjohn-ambulance.bsky.social joining Bushbury Quadrilateral Division.

6 restructures and a few role changes later I'm still here

Starting tonight I'm supporting @stjohnambulanceire.bsky.social interviews for the new county operations leads.
Over the coming weeks these new COLs will start to transition to replace the the (my current) events team (+some bits of Amb ops & logistics) ready to steer SJA in its new direction

Thanks to the restructure, I officially have absolutely nothing @stjohnambulance related to do & no leadership responsibility for first time since 2004, so taking the chance to catch up on TV.

Exactly when did they cancel Londons Burning & The Bill?
I hope Charlie from Casualty is still doing okay

2 years go was just finishing up on my interview & engagement panel to become @stjohnambulance Regional Event Lead for the newly formed West Midls Region.
I'd probably have had a less turbulent & stressful 2024 if I'd not channeled my inner Jed Bartlett so much through the process

30 days, 512 miles driven, 4 Districts but only 1 @stjohn-ambulance.bsky.social West Midlands Region.
I've been delighted to be able to visit all 4 SJA districts in WMR this month to see & volunteer with the most amazing people
Thank you to the volunteers & staff of WMR who make this happen

Spending a #stjohnambulance winters day in Derby, crewing 🚑 with Dr Josh supporting #EMAS

It's only a little chilly out there today! 🥶

We are covering the Derby area responding to 999 calls alongside another SJA crew with Emergency Ambulance Crew Lewis & Kay

Spending a day immersed in #stjohnambulance things today.

This morning it's the #Events AGM joining with other teams looking back at 2024 & ahead to how to deliver even more amazing events to our communities in 2025
