Lib Dem party steward saves a life

By NewsHound | Mon 13th July 2015 - 2:25 pm

One of our volunteer stewards at Federal Conferences is in the news for having saved a man’s life. The Manchester Evening explains what happened in an article headlined Good Samaritans save life of man on motorway bridge.

Hamza Afzal, a student from Manchester, was driving from Bolton to Manchester with a friend, when they spotted a man standing on a motorway bridge, on the wrong side of the barriers. They stopped and managed to pull him back to safety just as he was falling unconscious.

Congratulations to Hamza on his quick thinking and timely actions.
