Rejected petition Make FIRST AID a COMPULSORY subject on the National Curriculum

More details

Every year, thousands of people die needlessly when basic First Aid could, and in some cases, would, have saved them.

We don't expect children to be trauma surgeons, but basic knowledge of CPR, Strokes, Heart Attacks, head and spinal injuries, and heavy bleeding is essential for everyone to know.
