Cardiac incidents – how you can help

Support our Help with all your Heart campaign

We can get to a scene quickly, but did you know that you can help even before we get there?

Our crew attends hundreds of patients each year, many of whom experience cardiac incidents. But every day, defibrillators empower members of the public to become lifesavers themselves.

We want to help you feel more confident using the defibrillators available in your local community by offering training sessions led by our team.

Boost your skills to feel prepared to make a lifesaving difference.

In the UK, the out-of-hospital cardiac arrest survival rate is around 8%. However, if a defibrillator is used and effective CPR is performed within the first 3–5 minutes, a person’s chance of survival can increase to 50–70%. That’s a huge difference – and you can make it happen. Be ready to start the chain of survival: act fast. Save a life.


Can you tell the difference between cardiac arrest, a heart attack and a stroke?

Cardiac arrests account for over a third of the incidents we attend. But our local research shows that two thirds of people surveyed do not feel confident using a defibrillator should they need to. Your early intervention can really help to make a difference.

Boost confidence in your local community so that more people can learn the skills we hope they will never need.
