Restart a Heart Live

Bluebirds back Restart a Heart Live

Club News
We encourage Bluebirds everywhere to join Restart a Heart Live on Thursday, 10th October, and learn the valuable skill of CPR.

Restart a Heart (RSAH) is an annual initiative led by Resuscitation Council UK which aims to increase the number of people surviving out-of-hospital cardiac arrests by helping more people learn CPR.

This skill can be learned in a few minutes and equips us all to be able to look out for each other in the event of a sudden cardiac arrest.

Restart a Heart Live 2024 is an initiative from the Scottish Ambulance Service, Save a Life for Scotland and Save a Life Cymru to teach as many people as possible to do CPR and use a defibrillator on October 10th 2024 as part of the international RSAH initiative.

RSAH-Live will be a YouTube livestream starting at 9am on October 10th and running until 9am on October 11th. There will be live content streamed on the hour, each hour from 09:00-20:00 on October 10th and the stream will be available to rewatch after that.

Each hour, the live programme will include: CPR demonstrations and practice, education on how to use a defibrillator, what to expect when you dial 999 and live guests from around the UK.

This year RSAH-Live needs your help to set a new Guinness World Record. They hope to break the existing record for ‘Most views of a CPR lesson on YouTube in 24 hours’. In order to do that, they need as many people as possible to join the livestream at some point between 8am on October 10th and 8am on October 11th.

All of the sessions will be suitable for all ages, but the content at 10:00 and 11:00 are designed to be particularly accessible for primary school aged children.
