FREE RESTART A HEART DAY

Restart a Heart returns this October 2024! Learn CPR, act fast, save lives.

What is Restart a Heart?

Every October an alliance of partners all over the world (including UK Ambulance Services, universities, and other charitable and public sector community-based organisations and first aid training organisations) come together to increase public awareness of cardiac arrests and the number of people trained in lifesaving CPR and defibrillation.

We do this by organising and facilitating training events and by providing opportunities for people to learn CPR and defibrillation digitally in the safety and comfort of their own homes.

You can expect to see Restart a Heart events happening throughout October, and on Restart a Heart day on 16th October. 

This year we are encouraging everyone to become ready for the ultimate medical emergency by learning the steps to CPR and how to use a defib. We are also continuing to highlight inequalities in resuscitation.
