Parachute First Aid

12/01/2026

Sand in your sandwich is annoying. Sand in a cut is a nightmare.

We love the beach, but cuts don't love the grit.
Whether it’s a hidden rock in the surf, a sharp shell, or just an accidental slip on the boardwalk, the ocean has a way of leaving a mark.

Don't let a scrape turn into an infection.

Your Beach Day Protocol:
1️⃣ Flush it: Use the saline ampoules in your Parachute kit to blast the sand out (ocean water can contain bacteria, so rinse with fresh water/saline if you can!).
2️⃣ Clean it: Use a sterile wipe to ensure no grit is left behind.
3️⃣ Cover it: Seal it up so you can get back to building castles.

Remember to always pack your Parachute First Aid kit in your beach bag.
It fits right next to your SPF.

When you’re working solo, help isn't just around the corner. It could be hours away. No one to ask for a bandage.
Out in the elements, the only person you can rely on is you.
You are your own first responder.
Don't settle for a basic box of plasters. You need gear that works as hard as you do. The Parachute Lone Worker Kit is a specialised kit, giving you the tools to handle injuries until the pros arrive.
It’s compact enough for your belt or pack, but tough enough for the job.
Be self-sufficient. Be prepared. Don’t leave your safety up to chance.
Be your own first aid.

Crisis averted on the way to Judo tonight! A nasty tumble on the footpath almost ended the session before it began.

Thank goodness for the Parachute First Aid kit stashed in the glovebox. A quick clean-up and a dressing, and he was back on his feet and onto the mat without missing a beat.

Whatever you’re doing this week, make sure you’ve got the right gear handy! 🥋🩹
