What the petition asks

My husband recently helped a little girl who was having her 1st fit in the street.The mother was hysterical.But still so many people just walked by.Making me wonder if they actually knew what to do.I have done many first aid courses through work as has my husband.But kids don't have this opportunity
Unless the kids go to scouts, guides etc they are not taught it.
