Funded Training Course: Learn to Save a Life

UK coaching are offering FREE training to all.

Having witnessed Christian Eriksen’s live collapse at Euro 2020, we have no doubt that you will be alongside us with your thoughts and best wishes for the Danish player and his family.

The occurrence of the medical emergency in a live sporting environment has brought the reality of sudden cardiac arrest, on the pitch, in the park, on the kerb, to a stark reality.

The question is: do you know how to respond?

  • Would you recognise the onset of a sudden cardiac arrest?
  • Do you know the actions to take?
  • Do you know how to perform CPR?
  • Would you be able to locate the nearest defibrillator?

We have collaborated with Sport England who have funded an eLearning course that everyone can access free of charge. It will guide you through how to respond quickly to a sudden cardiac arrest.

Learn how to save a life.
