Learn CPR skills and how to save a life with a free demonstration by St John Ambulance volunteers at Gompels Pharmacy this Saturday.
The event, part of the nationwide annual Restart a Heart initiative, will run from 10am to 4pm on Saturday 11th October. The session is free and will equip people with CPR skills and teach them how to help someone who might be experiencing a cardiac arrest.
Restart a Heart Day aims to increase the number of people surviving out-of-hospital cardiac arrests by helping more people learn CPR. According to the Resuscitation Council UK, 80% of cardiac arrests happen at home.
The demonstration will take place at Gompels Pharmacy’s 1 Bank Street branch in Melksham.
