What
Our award winning Reducing Violence Programme is our most popular and regularly booked sessions. The programme is made up of independent training sessions which can be booked as a programme or as one-off sessions, depending of the needs of the young people.
What to do if someone is bleeding
This session covers how to call an ambulance and stem blood loss until medical help arrives. Young people are trained to apply pressure on or around the wound depending on whether the blade is still present. Visual demonstrations and interactive Q&A features explain the science of blood loss, address common misconceptions, and prepare young people for real life scenarios. Young people are also encouraged to consider their mental health in relation to street violence and how this might influence their willingness to act in an emergency situation. (45-60 mins)What to do if someone is knocked out
This session covers how to tell if someone is breathing or not, how to call an ambulance and give first-aid until medical help arrives. Young people are trained to use the recovery position if people are breathing and deliver chest compressions if they are not breathing. Visual demonstrations and interactive Q&A features explain the science of breathing and concussion, debunk common myths, and prepare young people for real life scenarios. (45-60 mins)
