Braidhurst High was recently delighted to learn that three fourth year pupils had interceded to support an elderly gentleman in great distress. The three pupils Emma Currie, Danielle Pritchard and Andrew McCreadie were alert when they noticed a gentleman, Mr Foy, collapse and fall in Bellshill Road near the school. Their swift action in ensuring his safety then delivering first aid and contacting an ambulance certainly was greatly appreciated. Mr Foy and his wife recently visited the school to personally thank the pupils for their action. Mr Foy said, “Without their care and attention as well as contacting an ambulance I shudder to think where I would be today. They are an absolute credit to their school”.
