A Perth hero will rub shoulders with world leaders, celebrities and royalty after he was invited to attend the King’s coronation having helped save countless lives during the Covid pandemic.
British Red Cross volunteer Richard Stibbles BEM left home at the start of the crisis in 2020 to do three deployments in London working minimum 10 hour days transporting patients with coronavirus to hospital, care homes or back to their families.
Having stepped in after NHS ambulance crews struggled to cope with demand, Richard’s heroics came at a cost as he himself contracted the virus.
