This week we were proud to host our first TASS athlete event, welcoming the Joe Humphries Memorial Trust (JHMT) to Loughborough College to deliver vital CPR and lifesaving training to our TASS athletes.
Taking place during SADS Week 2026, the session gave our athletes practical skills and confidence to respond in an emergency, while also raising awareness of Sudden Arrhythmic Death Syndrome (SADS) and the importance of CPR and early intervention.
Steph Tirrell, TASS Co-ordinator and Elite Sport Manager, said:
“Supporting talented athletes is about much more than their sporting performance. Giving our athletes the confidence and skills to potentially save a life is incredibly important, and we’re delighted that our first TASS event could have such a positive and meaningful impact. A huge thank you to the Joe Humphries Memorial Trust for working with us.”
A brilliant start to our programme of TASS events and a powerful reminder that simple skills can save lives.
