PUBLIC ACCESS TRAUMA (PAcT) KITS IN SALISBURY

Thanks to generous funding from Salisbury Rotary Club (thank you!), we've been able to spearhead a project to install 4 PAcT kits in public areas in Salisbury - now all we need is to empower the public to be able to use them!

The new kits are in place next to defibrillators at:
๐Ÿ“Salisbury Playhouse (by the stage door)
๐Ÿ“Outside The Chapel nightclub on Milford Street
๐Ÿ“Salisbury Arts Centre (by the stage door)
๐Ÿ“Gainsborough Close (Wiltshire Council Estate Office)

They are ALL outside and can be accessed 24/7.
๐Ÿšจ999 have been made aware of their locations and can direct callers to retrieve and use them.

We're running a FREE familiarisation session to enable local residents to physically see what is in a kit, have a go at using the equipment (without any blood or simulation), ask questions and build confidence. We'll also run through how to improvise in a situation where there is no PAcT nearby.

No need to book, just turn up! Completely free of charge.

Thank to Wendy for this recent review after attending a Saturday blended Paediatric First Aid course. We run these regularly to enable childcarers to attend on days that don't impact their working week as pulling them out of ratio in a childcare setting can be difficult to manage.

It was Wendy's 4th time attending a Paediatric First Aid course with us - that makes her a definite loyal customer!

Thank you to Tom Kingsley for these lovely words. Tom attended his first Emergency Paediatric First Aid course as a new foster carer, and we were so impressed with the speed with which he gained the skills needed.

Well done Tom!

โš ๏ธIMPORTANT - HEALTH IMPLICATIONS - FIRST AID KIT CHECK REQUIREDโš ๏ธ

The UK Health Security Agency (formerly Public Health England) has advised businesses and individuals to remove some brands of cleansing wipes from first aid kits due to a public health risk. These are non-sterile wipes.

"There have been 59 confirmed cases in an outbreak of Burkholderia stabilis identified in the United Kingdom from 2018 and up to 3 February 2026, associated with several non-sterile alcohol-free wipe products. These have included some serious infections in addition to the attributable death.

As previously communicated, the following products were found to be contaminated with the strain of Burkholderia stabilis causing the current outbreak:

* ValueAid Alcohol Free Cleansing Wipes
* Microsafe Moist Wipe Alcohol Free
* Steroplast Sterowipe Alcohol Free Cleansing Wipes

Testing also revealed contamination of Reliwipe Alcohol Free Cleansing Wipes, with a Burkholderia strain not related to the outbreak cases.

These products, which may have been used for โ€˜skin cleansingโ€™ and cleaning in or around wounds have been withdrawn from sale, but may still be found in some first aid kits and in peopleโ€™s homes. Patients should be advised to check for these wipes in their home, including in first aid kits. Those who still have any of the affected products should stop using them immediately and dispose of them in standard household waste."

PLEASE check your first aid kits and dispose of any of the wipes pictured. The general risk is deemed to be low, but at particular risk are those whose immune systems are compromised so please follow UKHSA advice.

It's National Bubble Wrap day - but how on earth does that relate to anything that Winterbury Training does?

On Saturday I spent the day with 14 brilliant childcarers, mostly childminders, working with them to improve their knowledge of Young People's Mental Health (with a 100% pass rate on the qualification - well done all!).

One of the many themes of the training is looking at how 'helicopter parenting' (hovering to help your child through life's adversities) or 'lawnmower parenting' (clearing the way to give them a smooth path through life) is really not helpful.

Removing obstacles from children's lives might seem laudable, but it removes the opportunities for children to build resilience - the ability to bounce back from adversity. If they don't face adversity, how do they learn to bounce back from it?

We watched an excerpt from Dick Moore's TedX talk - Dancing or Drowning in the Rain? It's powerful, and looks at how the failure to build resilience in our children can have catastrophic consequences. It'sthought-provoking, and well worth the 18 minutes to watch it (TW - su***de - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wstksuaSMD4). Giving our children the ability to weather the storms of life is one of our most important roles as parents and this talk really brings that home.

So, don't bubble wrap children! They need to learn to manage risks themselves, to build their resilience and to weather their own storms - and to know that you're there to support them if needed, but not to 'helicopter' or 'lawnmower' their route...

Thank you to Shelby for this recent review - it was a pleasure to have her along to renew her Paediatric First Aid.

Young people today are navigating pressure from all sides. School, friendships, online life, identity, expectations. Sometimes they need more than a listening ear. They need someone who knows what to look for and how to help.
