Community CPR Training - Learn CPR, Save a Life
COMMUNITY CPR TRAINING
Weds 21st Sept 1-3pm
Learn CPR, Save a Life.
Did you know that every week on average, six people suffer a cardiac arrest somewhere in Wellington and Wairarapa.
"The best way to increase someone’s chance of surviving is for everyone in our community to know how to do cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).
Almost 1 in 3 cardiac arrests happen in a public place and performing good CPR increases the chance of survival. When combined with use of an Automated External Defibrillator (AED), survival rates can increase to 80%."
Ka Pai Carterton is supporting the Wellington Free Ambulance to bring their Heartbeat Community CPR training course to our community on Weds 21st Sept from 1-3pm.
The course is fully funded but is limited to 30 people, so please book your spot by emailing hello@kapaicarterton.nz
Our intention with supporting the delivery of this programme is to ensure community has the capability to use defibs effectively and then map defibs already in the community, identifying and prioritising where they should be and work towards having these installed.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?
