⛰️ Scottish Women and Girls in Sport Week 2024 ⛰️Dr Fiona 🧑🏼‍⚕️Mum of two and GP, Fiona Horsfield, has been an OMRT volunteer for 7 years now."I love being part of the team. It’s always changing with the addition of new members. It’s incredibly rewarding to be part of a rescue. You can’t do it in isolation, you need lots of different people doing different roles.
