For all the kids that survived the 1940’s, 1950’s, 1960’s, 1970’s Perhaps a point or two to ponder! Fist we survived being born to mothers who smoked and/or drank whilst they were pregnant. They took aspirin, ate blue cheese dressing, tuna from a can and didn’t get tested for diabetes. Then after that trauma, we were put to sleep on out tummies, in baby cribs covered with brightly coloured lead-based paints. We had no childproof (or senior proof come to that) lids on our medicine bottles, door or cabinets and when we rode our…....

Brave Scout rewarded by South East Coast Ambulance Service.
South East Coast Ambulance Service NHS Trust (SECAmb) rewarded the quick-thinking actions of an 11-year-old boy who saved his mum and best friend from a burning car. Robert McGowan was presented with a bravery certificate by paramedics at a special ceremony held at Grayshott Scout Hall, Grayshott. The recognition came after Robert, known as Rabbie to friends and family, forced open the car door window and helped mum, Karen, and best friend, Tom, escape after a collision. Their car went out of control and hit the central reservation on the A3 at Thursley on Saturday, 1 December, last year. After the collision the car somersaulted in the air numerous times before landing in a ditch, already engulfed in flames. Paramedic, John Vivian, said: “Rabbie’s initiative and determination, displayed in the face of this adversity, deserved recognition. “In my opinion, if he had not acted so very quickly then all three would have perished in the fire that consumed the car so rapidly, “I have worked for the ambulance service for 14 years and have never seen bravery like this. He really did save their lives that day.” Fortunately no one received any serious injuries in the incident. Rabbie said: “I don’t remember a lot, but I remember being in the car on its side and I remember the fire. “I didn’t have time to be scared, I was just thinking about how to get out of the fire. We were all a bit shocked afterwards though.” Karen, who is very proud of her son’s actions, said: ”I was trying to open my door and window in the front, but they wouldn’t move. The back doors were jammed too. Rabbie managed to force the handle on the rear window until it had opened a bit. Then he pushed at the glass until there was a big enough gap to escape. He got himself and Tom out, before helping me through the window too. “The car was destroyed very quickly and I dread to think what would have happened if Rabbie had not acted so quickly. “I’m so proud of Rabbie. Not many people would be that brave or calm at any age, let alone at 11.” |
