The Red Cross Movement is held its annual ‘DiscoveRED’ event in Newry at the weekend. People stopped to find out more about its work in the area, learn some life-saving skills and have some fun whilst they’re at it.
Three strands of the world’s largest humanitarian network were there on the day – the British Red Cross, the Irish Red Cross and the International Committee of the Red Cross – sharing their skills and enthusiasm with the general public through a range of activities at Tesco Extra in the city.
People enjoyed chatting to the Red Cross staff and volunteers and enjoyed the range of activities on the day which included tours of Red Cross ambulances and emergency vehicles, first aid training, therapeutic hand massage and lots of activities for children too.
