Sally Bartlett, head of volunteering for London and south, said: “It is vital that as many people as possible learn how to deliver CPR and use a defibrillator because of the unpredictable nature of cardiac arrests.

“By ensuring more people have these skills and are not afraid to use them if they find someone who has collapsed and is not breathing, we can hopefully increase the number of people ready to step forward and intervene.

“In the space of only an hour, you can pick up these skills from us for free, so please make it a priority to find a Restart A Heart demonstration near to you.”
