We want everyone going on a night out this Christmas to have a safe and enjoyable time.
🎄Drink responsibly - you could become injured from falling or generally feel ill from over-drinking.
🎄Plan ahead - Think about how you're going to get home before you venture out.

Going to hospital via ambulance will not mean you’re seen any quicker when you get there, but could mean an ambulance isn’t available for someone who needs our life-saving care.

Each year, roughly 80,000 people suffer an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest – that’s around 200 people every day. 💔

80% of those happen at home.

Every minute without CPR and defibrillation reduces the chance of survival by 10%.

Don't delay, learn CPR today.
