Restart a Heart

DSC_0043In November, the PHSCE programme at Beverley Grammar School invited the Yorkshire Ambulance Service, and Humberside Fire and Rescue to visit Year 9 students.

This event was organised by Miss Hodgson, PSHCE Co-Ordinator, in conjunction with the British Heart Foundation.

The purpose of the event was to inform and demonstrate the basic skills needed to ‘restart a heart’ in the event of cardiac arrest.

This is something we believe is a very important skill for our students to possess, as issues related to heart disease and cardiac arrest become more prevalent in society.

Thank you to all those who helped on the day.
