We held three events for the Restart A Heart 2021 campaign, a Resuscitation Council UK initiative to introduce the public to CPR and AED use and increase awareness of how immediate action can save lives. We teamed up with Warwick First Aid SocietyLink opens in a new window delivering two events on campus for Staff and Students and one at Cannon Park open to the public aimed at providing a space to learn CPR and AED. These events were developed with the support of Warwick Community Values Education Programme (CVEP)Link opens in a new window.

• Prior to the pandemic, we'd planned to participated in a unique CPR/AED community teaching opportunity at the British Science Museum during their Science Museum Lates: Space event, organised by UK Space Labs and the Space Generation Advisory Council. It is hoped that this will be rearranged at a later date.
