That’s a Big One Harold

Another shield for the Ambulance section or so I am presuming, Geoff Patton tells us: ”These men were all Safety and Rescue personel as well as the First Aiders; I think they were all in the St John’s Ambulance as well”. Terry Robinson added: “Alec Cuthbert (Senior), on the right.” The names we now know are: Jack Tool, Albert Atkinson, Harold Found, Alec Cuthbert (Senior).

Cheques

A presentation of cheques, but we have no information as to event, location or what the cheques are for? We can identify at the far right Arthur Hawkins (Invoice Manager) and Eddie Yeoman receiving a cheque; far left Ron Mildon. Ron Milner (Security) centre with cheque? The Archive asked: “Can any one help with further information.” Colin Verrill suggested: “My guess, it was something to do with the St John Ambulance Brigade as Albert Atkinson and Eddie Yeoman and maybe Arthur Young were all involved with the Saint Johns Ambulance Brigade.” Colin also advised: “Far left is Ron Mildon; far right is Albert Atkinson. Can’t see Arthur Hawkins on the picture and he was my boss in the Invoice Department in 1973/74.” Bob Doe assisted with: “Far right Arthur Hawkins, Invoice Manager and Ron Milner.” Whilst Brian Young assisted with: “Far left . Ron Milner worked on security. Second left Arthur Young (Union Rep.), third Bob King (Works Manager).”

Presentation group: Ron Mildon, Arthur Young (Union Rep.), Bob King, ??, Ron Milner (Security), Eddie Yeoman, ??, Arthur Hawkins (Invoice Manager). If our viewers can assist in ensuring the right names in the right place; please get in contact.

First Aid

I know first left is Bill Hyde, but who are the other men and who is receiving the first aid? Bob Doe suggests: “In The middle looks like John Pearson and on the right looks like Derek Winspear both from the Roll Shop.”

St. John’s Ambulance

Looks as though there is an examination in progress, those of us not so young will recognise the Doctor there. The late  Dr. Etches, a well known, well liked doctor in Loftus. Barbara McBurney tells us: ”The boys attending to the patient are Dave Partlett and Gerry Pearson facing, Norman Myers kneeling with his back to camera.”

What’s The Cup For Harold?

Harold Found is seen receiving the cup, but who is presenting it and what is it for? I am guessing something to do with St John’s Ambulance. Barbara McBurney assisted with: “Definitely to do with First Aid as second from right is Vince Johnson, originally from School House, Skinningrove, he worked as a First Aider on Skinningrove Works.” Whilst Carole Walker advised: “The man standing on the far right is Danny Mr Simpson.”

Left to right: ??, Harold Found, ??, Vince Johnson, Danny Simpson.
