That sounds awesome – and I’m glad that you’re teaching schoolkids basic first aid. I really believe that no child should leave school without a first aid certificate.

Good on you mate.

First time on your blog; I came in from Handover.

What a great post, and what a brill granddad you had.

I’m a Health & Safety Officer in a school and I also lead first aid (as I’m a CFR in my spare[!] time). I’m determined that fewer 17yos will miss the signs, so I’m trying to start up a Heartstart UK scheme in the school.

First aid, age appropriate, should be part of the national curriculum in all schools.
