The Oakwell unit cover numerous events such as Barnsley FC matchdays, local galas and events and they are looking for volunteers to join the team.

Manager Arran McCallum said: “We are currently recruiting volunteer event first aiders to join our fantastic team at Oakwell.

“I believe first aid is so important and the difference between a life lost and a life saved is us.

“As a volunteer first aider you will attend four full days over two weekends and complete your training. There will also be one evening where interviews will take place.

“When training is completed you will be issued with full uniform and ready to attend events. This is a fantastic opportunity to anyone who is willing to help and give up some of their free time.”
