How did you first get involved with Red Cross and when?
In 1996 I had a young family and was looking for something to do for myself, I have always been interested in helping people and the Red Cross had an information evening. I remember waiting around for ages after the meeting to get interviewed. From there I started attending the Wednesday night training of the then-called ERU [emergency response unit]; 25 years later I still go to training on a Wednesday night.
