CPR is very important because it can be the difference in saving someone's life. I volunteered because I feel like I can make a difference and help other people make a difference to people's lives by teaching them CPR.
It's very rewarding. It's very enjoyable. And it's always nice to see the kids asking you lots of different questions. And I really feel like I'm making a difference. So, it feels really good. The kids have been amazing, really interactive.
Really happy to get involved and ask lots of really appropriate questions. And I think everyone thoroughly enjoyed it. It's been a great day.

It's an absolute pleasure to have the Great Western Air Ambulance Charity team here today teaching our students about CPR in advance of restart a heart day on the 16th of October.
We talked to our students this morning about how beneficial it can be when you intervene and are able to provide CPR to somebody and how much that can improve somebody's life chances should they have an out of hospital cardiac arrest.
We want our students to have these skills. And it's great to see the students, enjoying themselves, but also learning such an amazing, amazing skill.
One that we hope they don't have to use. But if they do, they've got the skills to be able to make a real difference in a really challenging situation.”
