Resuscitation Council UK
Resuscitation Council UK is saving lives by delivering training, developing guidelines, influencing policy and supporting cutting-edge scientific research. We’re working towards a day when everyone in society has the skills they need to save a life. Our guidelines, research and quality standards allow us to deliver courses in neonatal, paediatric and adult life support that benefit healthcare professionals. We raise public CPR and AED awareness with events such as Restart a Heart day, which sees members of the public trained in lifesaving skills. Together, the country can come together and save lives with appropriate resuscitation. We want you to join us on the journey by learning new skills and campaigning with us for change.
