Sisters save the day

CRANBOURNE sisters, aged 9 and 6 years old, are Junior Triple Zero Heroes after helping their mum through a medical emergency.

Chantel answered all of the triple-zero operator’s questions to provide the best possible information for paramedics, while younger sister Taylor helped to unlock the door for the ambulance crew.

Chantel and Taylor were presented with their Junior Triple Zero Hero awards at a ceremony on Wednesday 13 May by the Emergency Services Minister Jane Garrett and guest presenter, comedian Dave Hughes.
