The importance of First aid

First aid is a life-saving skill that everyone should know, no matter their age. Accidents and emergencies can happen anytime, anywhere—whether it's a minor cut, a burn, or something more serious like choking or an allergic reaction. Knowing what to do in these situations can make a massive difference.

According to the British Red Cross, only 5% of adults in the UK feel confident enough to help in a first aid emergency, even despite 59% saying they’ve witnessed someone who requires first aid. Studies show that up to 59% of deaths from injury could be prevented with basic first aid before emergency services arrive. Teaching children these skills early can help create a generation that is better prepared to save lives.
