Eli Beer is a pioneer, social entrepreneur, President and Founder of United Hatzalah of Israel. In thirty years, the organization has grown to more than 6,500 volunteers who unite together to provide immediate, life-saving care to anyone in need - regardless of race or religion. This community EMS force network treats over 730,000 incidents per year, in Israel, as they wait for ambulances and medical attention. Eli’s vision is to bring this life-saving model across the world. In 2015, Beer expanded internationally with the establishment of branches in South America and other countries, including “United Rescue” in Jersey City, USA, where the response time was reduced to just two minutes and thirty-five seconds.

Talks to end the Birmingham bin strikes collapsed this week. No deal was reached between Birmingham council and Unite union and the all-out strike entered its fifth week. There’s warnings of a public health emergency. Bin bags line the street, mountains of rubbish pile up in alleys, and an influx of rats is plaguing the city. And, Unite’s General Secretary Sharon Graham has warned bin strikes could spread to other local authorities as cash strapped councils make further cuts. The dispute began when the effective bankruptcy of Birmingham council triggered their decision to remove Waste Recycling and Collection Officers, a safety role it says does not exist at other authorities. Last month, I went to Birmingham to speak to striking bin workers, and some local residents, whose voices you’re about to hear. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.…
