Giving children the skills to act, not just watch

Practical first aid for the PSHE curriculum, delivered through real scenarios, not a slideshow.

Little Lifesavers Badge

Little Lifesavers

An active, practical first programme, where children learn the basics of first aid through real scenario-based activity - not just theory. Sessions use sport and play as the setting, because that's where the risk actually is, so the learning lands where it matters.

Children leave having done it, not just heard about it, practising on child-appropriate manikins, working through real scenarios, and building the confidence to act if something happens at home, in the park, or on the way to school.

Children will learn about:

  • What is first aid

  • Role of the First Aider

  • What’s in a first aid kit

  • Dr ABC

  • CPR

  • Defibrilation

  • Recovery position

  • Choking

  • Asthma

  • Shock

  • Wounds & bleeding

Schools running Little Lifesavers see a class-level shift in safety awareness that carries well beyond the session itself, and it gives you solid, practical evidence for Ofsted's personal development judgement.

"CPR really is the difference between life and death for thousands of people every year in the UK who suffer a cardiac arrest. Every second counts, so it is vital that school children across the UK are equipped with this simple, life-saving skill."

Simon Gillespie, previous CEO, British Heart Foundation
