Beachy Head is a famous beauty spot on the south coast in East Sussex, close to Eastbourne. The cliff is the highest chalk sea cliff in the UK; standing 531ft above sea level. Therefore, it gives one a spectacular view over the sea. But due to its height it is also a notorious suicide spot.
Estimates suggest that 20 people a year end their lives around this Sussex beauty spot. Because of this high rate the Beachy Head Chaplaincy Team patrols the area. They are a search and rescue, crisis intervention charity that seeks to save lives from suicide in their local area. Trained Chaplains are available every hour of the day, every day of the year, to reach out and offer support and hope to anyone who is suicidal or in distress. The chaplaincy team patrol high risk locations and respond to emergency calls, to locate people at risk. They use their skills in crisis intervention to offer supportive listening, to start a dialogue, to encourage more hopeful solutions than suicide.
Technical stuff
There is actually not much to say. This photo comes almost strait out of my camera. It was take at 200 ISO, f8, 1/250, -2/3 and 16mils.
Post-production included selecting this photo in Lightroom by pressing “P”, a tat more brightness plus vibrance and importing it into Photoshop for the copyright signs. The latter is, alas, there to stay due to the frequent copying of my photos. So, don't bother commenting on that.
While sitting at a stop light on Powell Street to make a left turn onto Pacific Ave. Ambulance M94 races by me. In less than 2 minutes, it will pull in front of me at Taylor & Pacific Streets (which is several blocks away).

Heute gibt's mal wieder ein Bild aus dem Rettungsdienst. Ich habe das Foto aus der Hand geschossen, dafür ist es recht ordentlich geworden. Die Bedingungen waren ja nicht gerade optimal.
Today we again have a picture from the rescue service. I took the photo by hand, but it turned out quite well. The conditions really weren't the best.

Two young sisters have been given a bravery award by the Chief Constable for making a 999 call after their mum suffered a seizure while driving.
Nine-year-old Lily Barber and her young sister Eva, 6, were given the Public Bravery Award at Greater Manchester Police’s Awards ceremony last night, 23 February.
The sisters called 999 back in November when their mum had a seizure at the wheel of her car, managing to tell a call handler all the details needed for police to locate them and get both mum and daughters to safety.
Forty-one year old mum of two, Claire Barber, was driving her two girls from Wigan to Boothstown when she suffered a seizure, falling unconscious after pulling over to the side of the East Lancs motorway.
Lily and Eva were travelling in the car with their mum, and promptly called 999 when they realised their mum was unwell.
Over the course of a 10 minute 999 call Lily told a call handler from GMP their location, direction of travel, car type and their mum’s medical history, enabling officers to find them and get them all to safety.
Ms Barber said: “I am so proud of my girls for their actions on that day and for winning this award. I have always taught them at young age what to do in an emergency and I’m so proud that they acted upon it.
“I was even more impressed with the way that Lily and Eva listened to the call handler and to each other while it was happening, even staying in the car when I’m sure all they wanted to do was grab me and keep me safe.
“I would also like to say thank you to the call handler from the Police for keeping the girls so calm – they must have been so scared and you really helped make it a bit easier for them.”
Call handler Stephanie Baxter, who has only worked for GMP for around 18 months, was also recognised for the way that she handled the call and directed officers to the family’s car.
Chief Constable Ian Hopkins said: “Lily and Eva showed real bravery and maturity when they must have been really scared about what was happening to their Mum”.
“Thankfully, their mum had taught them what to do in the event of an emergency and, thanks to their quick thinking and calmness we were able to get help to them as quickly as possible.
“It was a real privilege to meet Lily and Eva and present them with a Chief Constables Commendation. They are impressive young ladies and should be very proud of what they did.”

There is nothing quite like the blaring of an ambulance siren only feet away from you as it turns a corner. Without ear plugs, it hurts.

This sleek 1966 Superior consort Pontiac ambulance races down Central Avenue in Hot Springs, Arkansas.
With a loud Federal Q-2 siren, four alternating red bullet roof lights, and rotating red beaconray with two sealed-beams, this emergency ambulance was the best of its day. It actually had ample room for three stretcher patients, one on the main stretcher, one on a folding stretcher which could be rolled in next to the main stretcher, and one that could be suspended from the ceiling.
The vehicle was a short-wheeled base unit, easy to drive. It was used from 1967-1971 by Gross Mortuary as its first out emergency ambulance, and called "Car 6." It originally came painted all white, but later Gross Mortuary had its roof painted bright red. Photo taken by Dr. Jim Moshinskie.
