*Over 23 Million UK adults haven't learnt the skill of lifesaving CPR.

Around 80 percent of cardiac arrests occur out of hospital, meaning that you're often more likely to perform CPR on a loved one.

The RCUK( resuscitation council uk) state that statistics show there is worrying evidence that ethnic minorities from lower income backgrounds are less likely to be trained in CPR, hence less likely to be able to help in a medical emergency.

* British Heart Foundation

London has the highest rate of serious knife crimes, at 17.89 offences per 10,000 people.

Cleveland in the North East of England ranks second.

 A research paper by E Clinical  provides a comprehensive description of patient and injury characteristics; recent increases in admissions due to knife injuries occurred in males under 25 years of age. Nearly one in five patients are recidivists and female knife-injured patients are most likely to be injured in a setting of domestic violence. One in five of our study population required involvement of cardiothoracic surgeons. Limb injuries, whilst not often life threatening, consume significant resources including substantial emergency operating theatre utilisation. A comprehensive breakdown of weapons is presented, demonstrating that 14% of injuries were attributable to machetes, possibly associated with gang-related criminal activity. The national TARN registry recognised fewer than half of knife-related admissions.
