Why this training matters?
Uncontrolled bleeding is a leading cause of preventable death. A person with a severe hemorrhage can bleed out in as little as 3–5 minutes, which is often before emergency services arrive. Knowing how to apply a tourniquet, use haemostatic dressings, or apply direct pressure can mean the difference between life and death.
Empowers Bystanders to Act. In emergencies, you could be the first responder. Whether it’s a stabbing, workplace accident, car crash, or active threat, having the skills to stop life-threatening bleeding can save lives before paramedics arrive.
Addresses Rising Knife Crime & Violence. With stabbings and violent assaults on the rise, especially in urban areas, knowing how to control bleeding is an essential life skill for security personnel, teachers, community responders, and the general public.
Prepares for Higher Risk Environments. Those working in forestry, construction, outdoor sports, or adventure activities can face a higher risk of serious injury.
