The emergency services community has paid tribute to Georgia Barron, of Wallsend, North Tyneside, who died suddenly on Saturday, aged just 24. 

Georgia had worked with North East Ambulance Service (NEAS) for two years as an ambulance technician and was working towards becoming qualified as a paramedic. 

She gained an entry-level to apply for Sunderland University and, with encouragement from her colleagues, she was offered a place to study paramedic science. 

Georgia had recently passed all of her first-year exams and began her placements with the emergency care teams at NEAS.

With a target of £2,000, a JustGiving page has been set up by Georgia’s friends. 

Paying tribute to Georgia, Adam Brown said:

‘Everyone who had the pleasure of meeting Georgia knew that she was ambulance service through and through. She always managed to put a smile on both her colleagues and her patient’s faces. 

‘She’ll always be remembered for the happiness and cheekiness that she portrayed.

‘Georgia’s passing is absolutely devastating to all that knew her.

‘She managed to light up a room on the darkest days’.

‘We are hoping to raise money in her memory, to help support her family at a time of need. The money raised will go to her mother.’

A spokesperson for NEAS said:

‘Georgia was an ambulance care assistant on our patient transport service, studying to be a paramedic.

‘Her family tell us how excited she was to begin her career as a paramedic and how she loved every day at NEAS, seeing everyone and working alongside her colleagues.

‘Georgia will be greatly missed and on behalf of everyone here at NEAS, including our patients and the communities we serve, we offer our sincere condolences to the family.

‘This will deeply affect many people within our service and we are supporting our staff and students during this very sad time’.

Anyone feeling emotionally distressed or suicidal can call Samaritans for help on 116 123 or email jo@samaritans.org Mental Health Charity’ Mind’ also operate a mental health helpline for members of the emergency services. 

To make contact with a member of their team, call 0300 123 3393.

Before you go...

WE NEED YOUR HELP. As former emergency services & armed forces personnel, we pride ourselves on bringing you important, fast-moving and breaking news stories & videos which are free from the negative 'anti' bias which is often directed at the emergency services & NHS by some sections of the mainstream media.

One of the reasons we started 'Emergency Services News' back in 2018 was because we became tired of reading badly informed stories about the emergency services.

We want to be the unheard voice of the remarkable men and women who serve in the emergency services, NHS and armed forces. And with around 500k page views each month, we are getting there!

As income from ads, the mainstay source of income for most publishers, continues to decline; we need the help of you, our readers.

You can support emergency services news from as little as £1. It only takes a minute. Every contribution, however big or small, is vital for our future.

Please help us to continue to highlight the life-saving work of the emergency services, NHS and armed forces by becoming a supporter.
