Plans exits to further increase the capacity of the unit by putting into service another hydro ambulance in the coming month.

Anyone can join the Red Cross and become a lifeguard. The project at Ramla is being run in close collaboration with the Xaghra Local Council, Malta Tourist Authority, the Gaia Foundation and the Ministry for Gozo.
