    Story

    I am Paramedic and have worked for the London ambulance service for 13 years. I am a Mum of three (including Fred the Pug!) I have felt from visiting those in desperate need could, in some cases, have their pain and heal time eased if a first aider were there as a first contact. I want to know that my children know exactly what to do in an emergency, if it be at home or when they are out at their friends houses. The first few seconds of a serious accident are crucial so having them trained in basic first aid is teaching them to be life savers - start them young!

    I was so surprised to see how much it costs to do mandatory first aid at work course and also how much it costs just for a basic level first aid course. In my research it made me think about how I could help charities, my local church community and also single families on low incomes have access to a first aid course. I want to be able to use my knowledge and experience from my job to give back to my local community and further afield.

    I was able to save up and pay for the teacher training qualification I needed to be able to offer this training this cost £2000. I now I need to fund raise to help me get the equipment and insurance needed to be able to offer this service.

    I need to purchase adult and child manikins, training defibrillator, public liability insurance and stationary.

    I really appreciate you taking the time in reading this and and donation how big or small is hugely appreciated. God bless you all.

      A great idea! Good luck. I think everyone should make the effort to attend a first aid course. I learnt a lot from the one I attended.
