Five members of Glen Eira FC were among 15 Victorians presented with Community Hero Awards by the CEO of Ambulance Victoria, Associate Professor Tony Walker, ASM in a ceremony at Parliament House yesterday.
Jo McCutcheon, Tara Carrafa, Alex Yianni, Rachel Yianni and Stewart Howell were nominated for their award by MICA Paramedic Glenice Winter for their quick actions in saving the life of a parent who collapsed during a fun kids v parents match on Gala Day.
