Receiving first aid in the minutes before advanced medical care arrives can be the difference between a life lost or saved. Volunteer responders who deliver care in these key moments save lives and improve health outcomes; defibrillation within 3 minutes of cardiac arrest improves survival to 70%+

Situation

Life threatening scenarios require immediate health care and essential treatment in the moments immediately after an incident, the kind of help that first aiders can provide. Thousands of people a year make emergency calls where first aid skills and equipment would change their outcomes, yet are unable to receive the first aid that will best affect their survival and recovery. Communities around England lack first aid treatment at the point of life threatening health events.

Solution

Our volunteer Community First Responders (CFRs) are dispatched to life threatening calls in their local communities, offering emergency medical care in the vital minutes before an ambulance arrives. Our CFRs are fully trained and kitted out with essential equipment to help in a wide range of incidents requiring life saving care. CFRs already live and work within the communities they serve, enabling them to arrive in just a few minutes to assess the casualty and provide essential care.
