If someone collapses in the street or in your home -would you know what to do?
Learning basic essential lifesaving skills could mean the difference between a person staying alive and a terrible tragedy.
This an invitation to any Long Wittenham resident who wants to learn basic first aid at a St John Ambulance Essential First Aid Course to be held in the Village Hall on Saturday 9th March at 10.00 am.
The 3-hour course which covers all the essential techniques – including CPR as seen in the Staying Alive TV ads – usually costs £30 but there are local funds left over from the village defibrillator fund-raising campaign by the local Heartbeats charity to reduce the cost to £15. There are only 12 places available on the course and they will be booked on a first-come-first-served basis. Fees are payable at the time of booking.
If there is sufficient demand we will try to arrange another course later in the year.
For more details and to book a place – please contact Beth or Crispin on 01865 408011; email crispinevans@gmail.com; or call at 36 Fieldside, Long Wittenham.
