Remembering today all those whose lives were devestated by the 7/7 london terrorist attacks, and my colleagues in the emergency services who risked their own lives to save others #7/7
Please, slow down. With quieter roads we have witnessed an increase in speeding motorists. In the event of a road traffic collision you will further burden the already stretched @Ldn_Ambulance and NHS, as well as other emergency services.

Today is @30Days30WaysUK ‘Prepared App’ day and citizenAID have been given the opportunity to promote our free app. The app is a handheld system for managing the scene of a mass casualty incident and provides instruction on how to treat life threatening injuries
One of our Ambassadors Dr Ian Pallister was on @BBCCrimewatch today to discuss citizenAID and the importance of knowing how to control life threatening bleeding
Warms my heart to see battlefield first aid skills being used to save lives at home. If you don’t have the kit, it’s ok to improvise—and an improvised tourniquet can save lives @ThecitizenAID
Following an attack with a corrosive substance the priority must be to apply copious amounts of water in order to remove as much of the substance as possible.
Today marks 14 years since the 7/7 attacks in London.
We remember those who died and all who were affected. Our thoughts are also with the loved ones of those who died and were injured.
