Welcome to Red Horse Vale First Responders
Our mission is simple: saving lives and building stronger, more resilient communities through emergency care, life saving training and community defibrillators.

We are a South Warwickshire charity dedicated to delivering emergency medical care. In partnership with West Midlands Ambulance Service University NHS Trust, we respond to 999 calls – providing critical treatment in those vital minutes before an ambulance arrives.
This is achieved through our volunteer Community First Responders who respond to 999 calls. Our Responders are highly trained volunteers who provide immediate care and support in emergency situations, arriving before the ambulance resource 85% of the time. Their quick response can make the difference between life and death, ensuring that those in need receive crucial care as swiftly as possible. The dedication and commitment of our responders are at the heart of everything we do.
Our team covers 230 square miles, we use our local knowledge and proximity to reach emergencies quickly, often making a crucial difference in the outcome.
As a registered charity, we receive no central or NHS funding. Every piece of equipment, our uniform, and our life-saving response car is funded through donations and community support. Our team is made up entirely of volunteers, giving their time to respond, train, and fundraise.
This is our purpose. We treat. We teach. We get there. We support our local community and each other.
