Rejected petition Make Basic First Aid Mandatory in all school starts and professions.

Say somebody collapsed in front of you right now. Would you know what to do straight away, to increase that person’s chance of survival if it was life and death? Many people wouldn’t know where to start. It’s important that everybody knows how to save a life, so when the time comes, we all know.
