During the olden days the school's Red cross also carved an enviable niche
for the school as a result of its out-of-school activities. On Sundays,
after breakfast, groups of the Red Cross members were dispatched to the
surrounding towns, notably, Kwadaso, Ampabame and Boshyen to educate the
public on the importance of personal hygeine.

They also gave first aid
treatment to the people and treated minor ailments like the common cold
and sore-throat. The members of the society from time to time freely donated
blood to the Okomfo Anokye Hospital in Kumasi to help save precious lives.
The Red Cross is equipped with a tent, field boxes, stretchers, blankets
and strawmats. With its motto "Service to Mankind," the Prempeh
College Red Cross has been functioning very well.
It gives assistance to
athletes who either collapse or out of shame fall down during the Annual
Inter Schools & College Athletics Competition. The Society is also
always on its feet on every Prempeh Inter-House Sporting Games.
