Make First Aid part of the national curriculum in Primary and Secondary School

Rejected 16 signatures

What the petition asks

Recently I have been the only trained first aider on scene for 2 strangers in the street. When speaking to others they have agreed they wouldn't have the first clue what to do if they saw someone in need. This has been on the news. This is a real issue. It is an essential skill. Save someone's life.
