Getting started
Setting up a school first aid club is a great way for students and staff to come together to raise awareness of the importance of first aid and learn life saving skills.
Establish a purpose for your first aid club
Establishing a purpose for your club will help with getting people involved. Here are some questions to get you thinking:
- What do you want your club to achieve?
- What will be the benefits of your club to students, staff, and the school?
- How does the club fit in with your school's priorities?
