1st Floor, Students' Union Foyer, Campus Heart, Middlesbrough
You're invited to participate in Restart a Heart Day, a global initiative dedicated to raising awareness about the importance of CPR and equipping people with lifesaving skills.
We are having ours on Wednesday, 15th, in the Afternoon, when there are no classes, so you have no excuse for not popping along and getting trained in CPR.
What is Restart a Heart?
https://www.resus.org.uk/get-involved/restart-heart-day
Every October, an alliance of partners all over the world (including UK Ambulance Services, universities, and other charitable and public sector community-based organisations and first aid training organisations) come together to increase public awareness of cardiac arrests and the number of people trained in lifesaving CPR and defibrillation.
We achieve this by organising and facilitating training events, as well as providing opportunities for people to learn CPR and defibrillation digitally in the safety and comfort of their own homes.
You can expect to see Restart a Heart events happening throughout October, and on Restart a Heart day on 16 October. Restart a Heart encourages everyone to become ready for the ultimate medical emergency by learning the steps to CPR.
Whether you're hosting an event or attending one, teaching in person or learning online, you have a key role to play in improving survival rates from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. You can ensure that everyone has a chance to learn the steps to CPR and that those having a sudden cardiac arrest have their best chance of surviving.
Come along to learn how to perform CPR, try out practical demonstrations, and have some fun while gaining essential life-saving skills. Let’s make a difference—through learning, laughter, and saving lives. Everyone is welcome
