Mark Lawrence (Agronomist) based in Kojonup penned the October Editorial. As well as introducing articles for this month, Mark recommended the use of the St John First Responder App.
Mark recently experienced a scenario while mountain bike riding where he needed to contact emergency services, but it was difficult to give accurate road references due to his location. He learned that if you call through the St John First Responder App, it references the exact location of the incident to emergency services, making it much easier for assistance to come to you. Very handy for many of our clients, living in remote areas.
