FS HOT FSHOT

Would you know what to do if someone suffered a cardiac arrest in front of you?

Here's an opportunity to learn a potentially life-saving skill – and it won't cost you a penny!

A FREE Defibrillator Training Session is taking place at St John's Church on Saturday 21st November, between 10.30 am and 12.30 pm.

The session offers an opportunity to learn more about defibrillators, understand how they are used and gain confidence in responding to a cardiac emergency.

You don't need any previous experience or medical knowledge. These skills could one day help you save someone's life.

A personal message from FS HOT

This is a subject particularly close to our hearts.

Our own neighbour suffered a heart attack this year and, thankfully, was saved. Having experienced something like this so close to home, we know just how important it is that ordinary members of the public have the knowledge and confidence to help when an emergency happens.

You never know when you might find yourself in a situation where knowing what to do could make all the difference.

We wholeheartedly endorse this training session and would strongly encourage local residents to take advantage of this FREE opportunity.

Please spread the word among friends, family and neighbours. The more people who know what to do in an emergency, the better.

It could be someone you love who needs your help one day.

FREE ENTRY – Everyone Welcome!

Saturday 21st November | 10.30 am – 12.30 pm

The people of Tottington are invited to come together this Sunday for the annual Remembrance Parade and Service.

The parade will commence from Harwood Road at 2.30 pm, before gathering to remember and honour all those who gave their lives in the service of our country.

Remembrance Sunday provides an important opportunity for our community to pause, reflect and pay our respects to the servicemen and women who made the ultimate sacrifice, as well as those who continue to serve.

Residents, families and members of the local community are warmly encouraged to attend and show their support.

Lest We Forget.

Sometimes, it's nice to take a moment to appreciate when something you've been working hard on gets a little recognition.

I'm absolutely delighted to share that the Bury Times has published an article about me and the work behind FS HOT, including the development of our website privacy scanner.

It's always encouraging to see something you've invested time, effort and passion into recognised by your local community, and I'm genuinely grateful to the Bury Times for taking an interest in what we're doing.

Thank you to the Bury Times for helping shine a spotlight on online privacy and cybersecurity.

Why this matters

Online privacy is something that affects all of us, whether we're individuals browsing the internet, running a small business or managing a much larger organisation.

Yet, it's an area that can often be overlooked. Many people simply aren't aware of how much information websites can collect about their visitors, or how tracking technologies operate behind the scenes.

This is one of the reasons behind the work we're doing at FS HOT.

Our aim is to make online privacy and cybersecurity more accessible, understandable and relevant to everyday internet users.

The website privacy scanner is part of that journey, helping bring greater awareness to what happens when we visit websites and encouraging people to take a closer look at their digital privacy.

A little recognition goes a long way

For anyone working on a project, developing an idea or trying to make a difference in their own field, having a local newspaper take an interest is a genuinely rewarding experience.

It also provides an opportunity to reach people who might not otherwise have come across FS HOT or the work we're doing.

So, once again, a huge thank you to the Bury Times for featuring me and FS HOT. Your support and interest are very much appreciated.

And, of course, thank you to everyone who has supported, encouraged or taken an interest in what we're building.

There is plenty more to come!
