Thanking our emergency services
A special flag was raised outside North Lanarkshire Council’s headquarters to mark Emergency Services Day.
Representatives from the police, fire service, Scottish Ambulance Service and the NHS were present at the ceremony.
North Lanarkshire Provost Jean
Jones said:“our emergency services perform a magnificent role in helping others right across the country, day in and day out.
“We owe a massive debt of gratitude to our doctors, nurses, firefighters, paramedics, police officers, volunteers and everyone who helps care for, and protect, others. The coronavirus crisis has highlighted just how much we need and rely upon these incredible individuals and organisations.
“This is an opportunity to remember the vital contribution which all our emergency services make to our lives.”
