Aiden Lynch
Aiden has had a long-standing interest in joining the emergency services. His passion for medical care began after completing a first aid course at work, and he quickly became active on the Good Sam app, responding to 11 calls in just one year to assist the Scottish Ambulance Service at cardiac arrests. Through his connections in Police Scotland, Aiden found out about Safe Killie and joined our Safe Killie Street Medic response team and has rapidly progressed to become one of our Operational Team Leaders. He hopes to join Police Scotland in the coming months.

Alexia's passion for caring for others began while completing her HNC in nursing, where she gained early clinical experience across healthcare settings, including hospital and casualty environments. She then went on to work in a nursing home part time, developing strong clinical skills, and a keen passion for helping others.
