Today we had 2 of our EMTs and our Advanced Paramedic on duty for the South East Road Clubs 3, Peaks Challenge 2019. This is a regular event for us that we love covering as we get to take in the beauty of the Wicklow hills and the cyclists were even delayed by some of the locals in the hills. A though challenge for all involved and a huge congrats to all those that took part. See you next year... #SavingLives #TouchingLives #ChangingLives
