At the May 20 meeting, members discussed the national AGM resolution ‘SOS for bees’. The voting was unanimous for this resolution.

Afterwards Mike Randle gave a talk on present day first aid. Mike spoke about CPR, the different techniques for adults and children, heart attacks and strokes and the importance of getting the right help quickly. Then he and a team from SARA (The Severn Area Rescue Service) told us about their role in the community.
