If you're experiencing loneliness, take comfort in knowing that it's a common feeling that can touch anyone. Remember, seeking support showcases your strength. A simple phone call, a video chat, or spending time with a friend can make a significant difference. It's essential to stay connected with others, as it can lighten the burden of loneliness. We're united in this experience. Let's continue to reach out, stay in touch, and support one another during tough times.

2025 Guidelines have been released:

Main change - CALL 999/112 for unresponsive casaulty

1) Call 999 for any unresponsive person. Rescuers no longer need to confirm abnormal breathing before calling. Initiate the call first, then assess breathing while waiting for the call to be answered. The ambulance service call handler will be able to assist you in identifying abnormal breathing, if needed.

2) Exercise is a common precipitant of cardiac arrest. The 2021 guidelines emphasised descriptions of slow or laboured breathing as indicators of abnormal breathing. For 2025, we recognise that early after the onset of cardiac arrest, athletes may display a near-normal or panting breathing pattern.
