Come and join the CPR-athon

A first of its kind CPR-athon will be taking place this Saturday, teaching members of the public basic lifesaving skills.

Staff and volunteers and other medics from the trust, East Anglian Air Ambulance, Essex and Herts Air Ambulance, MAGPAS, Norfolk Accident Rescue Service and Suffolk Accident Rescue Service will simultaneously ‘take over’ shopping centres and community venues.

Each training session takes just a few minutes and involves showing the public practical life-saving skills plus advice on what happens following a 999 call and further information on cardiac care.

If you would like to support our staff involved, you can drop by the special stands between 11am,-3pm at the following venues:

• Bedford: Boots at The Interchange Park (Kempston)
• Bury St Edmunds: Arc shopping centre
• Cambridge: The Guildhall
• Chelmsford: Anglia Ruskin University
• Downham Market: Town Square*
• Ipswich: Ipswich Town Hall forecourt
• Norwich: Chapelfields
• Peterborough: Queensgate shopping centre
