Last year, over 2,000 individuals and organisations joined the ResusReady map. Can you help us beat that in 2026?

If you’ve learned or refreshed your CPR skills in the past 12 months, register as ResusReady.

It helps us understand where communities are prepared to step up in an emergency, and where more CPR training and support are needed.

As we look ahead to 2026, we’re taking a moment to reflect on some of what we’ve achieved together this year.

From financially supporting community led CPR training and growing the ResusReady map, to publishing the 2025 Resuscitation Guidelines, training healthcare professionals, influencing policy, and campaigning for CPR in schools - none of this would be possible without your support.

Whether you donated, campaigned, shared our message, or learned lifesaving skills yourself, thank you. Together, we’re building a future where everyone has the skills to help save a life. ❤️
