By giving CPR a go, you are giving someone their best chance of survival. Performing high quality CPR is always our goal, but any CPR can still help save a life. Taking action, even if it’s not perfect, is better than no action.

Did you know a cardiac arrest and a heart attack aren’t the same thing? The terms get used like they mean the same emergency, but they don’t. Understanding the difference could help you respond the right way when it really matters. 👇 Scroll through the images below to learn

Last week, we travelled to Newcastle to meet the McGuirk family who have been fundraising in memory of their beloved husband/dad/brother - John McGuirk, who sadly passed away last October. Just look at that amount raised! Thank you all so much, what an incredible legacy to John.

People in deprived areas are: - less likely to receive bystander CPR, - less likely to access a defib, - and less likely to survive cardiac arrest. This isn’t chance, it’s inequality. We’re committed to changing this, because where you live or what your background is should

It was a normal Friday night for Nina and her husband Jon. Then, their evening took a dramatic turn - and it could happen to anyone. Their story is a powerful reminder of why CPR matters: bit.ly/4kgZA4F

When someone is unresponsive, how should you check if they're breathing? ✅ Gently tilt their head back and lift their chin to open the airway. ✅ Get close and look, listen, and feel for normal breathing for up to 10 seconds. Which example below gets it right? 👇

Language shouldn’t be a barrier to learning CPR, yet it continues to contribute to inequalities in resuscitation. That’s why we offer translated resources so more people can access lifesaving education. Learn CPR your way 👉 resus.org.uk/public-resourc…

New to CPR? You’re probably wondering: ❓ What if I do it wrong? ❓ Do I have to give mouth-to-mouth? ❓ Can I even use a defib? You’re not alone. We’ve got answers to help you feel more confident and ready to act 👇

Shifting care into the community without District Nurses is like trying to run aviation without air traffic control You can do it but the dangerous uncoordinated mess that will emerge is a pretty sobering thought Nuffield Trust report coming soon. nuffieldtrust.org.uk/resource/the-l…

Do you have to give rescue breaths when giving CPR on an adult? Our guidelines recommend two rescue breaths for every 30 compressions if you have been trained to do so. However, compression only CPR is still effective and increases survival rates. Swipe for the details 👉
