Include CPR in the national curriculum
In school children get taught things, some are useless, some are essential, most people do not know how to do CPR. Is learning about maths more important than saving someone's life?
They should be taught at secondary schools or higher.
A study showed more than a 1/3 of adults do not know how to do CPR.
The NHS is under pressure and the average ambulance arrival time was 9 minutes in December 2021.
Every second counts especially in cardiac arrest, after 3 minutes you can have brain damage and it just gets worse.
