Saving lives by parking cars in Canterbury! ⠀
⠀
“One of the fundamentals of Freemasonry is our charity work. To provide parking close to the netball courts, as well as supporting worthy causes really makes the project a huge win for the community” said Dai Eveleigh, organiser and Charity Officer for District 25, “I really have to thank our volunteers and the support of Calder Stewart in making the car parking available and in turn, allowing The Freemasons to raise funds for charity”.⠀
⠀
The funds raised through the car parking, a donation from brethren in District 23, along with a Charitable Grant from The Freemasons Charity enabled the purchase of lifesaving equipment exceeding $45,000.⠀
⠀
The rescue equipment which included three water rescue life vests, ten Pelvic Stabilisation devices, three water rescue harnesses, multiple water rescue kits, a winch stretcher and open water dry-suits for the crew will be used throughout Canterbury and The West Coast. ⠀
The Canterbury West Coast Rescue Helicopter covers rescues all the way south to Timaru, north to Kaikoura, along the West Coast, and covering the Alps and all of Canterbury in between. The Canterbury and West Coast rescue crews responded to 869 missions during 2020, an increase of 8% in mission numbers compared to 2019. Call outs included, mountaineering accidents, skiing related injuries, isolated motor vehicle accidents and medical emergencies.⠀
⠀
It should be noted that the Freemasons of the Midland District has also supported this cause to the tune of $55,000 so that all up total is $100,000.⠀
