CPR & Defibrillator training & awareness sessions

Would you know what to do if you found someone who had collapsed and was not breathing? Every moment counts during a cardiac emergency and it is vital the person receives treatment as swiftly as possible to have the highest likelihood of survival.

The first thing to do is to dial 999 and request an ambulance. Current ambulance response rates stand at up to 30 minutes or more in rural areas. Providing care within 3-5 minutes of the person’s collapse will increase their survival chance from 6% to 74%.

Performing CPR at this stage can double the person’s chance of survival. Chest compressions keep blood flowing to the person’s vital organs, ensuring they’re not deprived of oxygen and are still functioning.

Early intervention and action is crucial to providing the highest chance of survival for a victim of cardiac arrest. Make sure you’re equipped with the knowledge to save a life by booking on to one of our training courses.

We can provide instruction either on an individual basis, or for groups of up to around twenty people at a time. The session will last for approximately two hours and is delivered in a fun and interactive way. We will provide all the required equipment, all we ask is that you provide a suitable location (for example a village hall, scout hut or classroom) and some refreshments for those attending.

Sessions are provided by us free of charge, all we ask in exchange for our time is a donation towards our ongoing running costs as a charity. Please contact us and let us know your requirements - we’ll be very happy to help!
