  Road Samaritan Ltd

  Mar 2016 - Jun 2020

  Co-Founder and Director Of Operations

  When a severe road crash occurs, the immediate action taken to assist the victims of the crash determines how many survive and how well they recover both physically and emotionally. In many cases, victims of such crashes are unable to reach their phones or any other tool to communicate their condition to someone who can assist. Having a contingency plan in place makes the difference between life and death/serious injury. Road Samaritan Limited is a customer focused subscription based Road Crash Reporting and Response Service that rides on the use of available SMS/USSD based mobile phone technologies. Show less
