⚡ Would you know what to do if someone suddenly collapsed in front of you?
Many people worry about using a defibrillator, but public access defibrillators are designed for anyone to use. Simply switch it on and follow the voice instructions.
A defibrillator will only deliver a shock if it's needed, making it safe and easy to use in an emergency.
Knowing how to respond quickly could help save a life before the ambulance arrives.
Want to feel prepared rather than panicked? Join a Mini First Aid course and learn CPR, defibrillator awareness, and other essential lifesaving skills.

💚More than 40,000 people experience an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in the UK every year, yet fewer than 1 in 10 survive.
In a cardiac arrest, every minute matters. Without CPR or defibrillation, survival chances decrease by around 10% for every minute that passes.
The good news? Quick action from bystanders can make all the difference.
Learning CPR and understanding how to use a defibrillator could help you save the life of a loved one, colleague, neighbour, or even a stranger.
Ready to gain lifesaving skills and confidence? Book a Mini First Aid course today and learn what to do in an emergency.

More than 10 million drivers don’t know how to put someone in the recovery position, and only 56% said they feel confident performing CPR.*
Yet every day, millions of us get behind the wheel, confident we’ve passed the test that says we’re “safe” on the road.
But what happens when you’re first at the scene of a crash?
What’s important before emergency services arrive is not just putting out the hazard lights or warning triangles, it’s the people who may need you to keep them alive or safe from further harm. Would you know how to help someone who isn’t breathing properly? Would you know how to keep them safe?
Passing your driving test proves you can drive but learning first aid proves you can respond when it really matters and now the driving theory test in the UK doesn’t just test your driving, it also tests your ability to save a life.
Learn adult first aid with us and be prepared!
