Teen Volunteer Who Saved a Life Before Matric Dance Now Set for Formal Medic Training

A Pretoria teenager, Lawrencé Lee, made headlines after volunteering as a medic just hours before his matric dance. On the night of his much-anticipated farewell, he was called to help with a medical emergency and ended up saving a life. His quick thinking and willingness to put others first, even on such an important night, caught the attention of many across the country.

As a result of his selfless act, Lawrencé has now been accepted into formal paramedic training. This opportunity allows him to turn his compassion into a career, helping others in critical situations just like he did that night before his matric dance.
