pupils took part in the Heartstart programme which aims to teach members of
the public what to do in a life threatening emergency: simple skills that
can save lives.
Every 2 minutes
in the UK someone has a cardiac arrest. Administering Basic Life Support until
professional help arrives can mean the difference between life and death, and
can dramatically improve the subsequent quality of life of sufferers.
