We're proud of our junior members (primary school) who are now equipped with essential first aid knowledge. It's never too early to learn these life-saving skills. We covered everything from what to do if someone faints to the basics of CPR 🚨
We're also making sure teachers feel confident and prepared to respond in an emergency, as they're often the first ones on the scene to help.
It's great to see schools taking the initiative to organise this, and hopefully, more will join in.
