Accidents are inevitable, and there is no guarantee that people are safe from any physical injury, illness or trauma.
Every year, millions of people are hurt or killed from injuries due to inadequate response or lack of timely assistance. According to The Guardian, over 150,000 people sustain grave injuries or die yearly in the UK because of people’s lack of first aid knowledge.
A trained person is capable of saving a life and can make a world of difference. Swift and proper administration of first aid can mean life or death to those involved.
The good news is that a First Aid training course only takes a matter of hours to complete. Why delay? There is no better time than right now to learn a new set of skills that could potentially save the life of someone you know or love.
