A TEAM of 4x4 volunteers who helped snowbound NHS staff at the beginning of the year are expanding their service across North Wales thanks to a cash boost from a police charity. Charity 4x4 Response Wales are upgrading critical communications equipment and training more members after receiving a £2,000 grant from The Police and Community Trust North Wales (PACT). The voluntary organisation assists police, emergency planners and other blue light responders by offering their 4x4 vehicles in a crisis. Volunteers from the 4x4 Response Wales recently supported North Wales Police during the Bangor-on-Dee flood emergency in January – assisting 40 people to safety - and have also been ferrying emergency food supplies to vulnerable people during the pandemic.
