Our Kouga crew going the extra mile!

A tourist from Belgium recently injured herself while surfing at one of the world famous Jeffreys Bay surf spots. This injury unfortunately meant that catching her flight out the country was proving to be difficult.

Our team transported her by Ambulance to the Chief Dawid Stuurman Airport in Gqeberha, further assisting her with the check in process.

Prevention is better than cure and one way to stay healthy is by attending the St Francis parkrun where you will meet enthusiastic residents keeping fit with friends and family.

Our thanks to Gardmed Ambulance Service who stood close by today at St Francis Links as we all enjoyed another parkrun.
