Thanks @looknorthBBC for helping to raise awareness of knowing CPR. I know I’ve been banging on about it for years, but then this happened… 🤷‍♂️ @ResusCouncilUK @YorksAmbulance @TheBHF @stjohnambulance @RedCross @BBCNews @easyJet_press @easyJet #restartaheart #restartaheartday – at Hull, England

Last year Mike had a cardiac arrest at home and his partner Jen called 999, performed CPR until the ambulance arrived and Mike went on to make a full recovery. He and his partner then did some fundraising for @yas_charity Today he came to meet the crews who attended and helped to save his life. @YorksAmbulance @World_RAH #restartaheart @ResusCouncilUK

I think it’s safe to say, the therapy dog visit from Skye from @PetsAsTherapyUK was a success 🐶🥰 @YorksAmbulance

I spent the day with King County Medic One, Seattle. Here, if you have an out of hospital cardiac arrest, you have a 40-50% chance of survival. This is phenomenal, in contrast to the UK’s 8-10%! Interesting to see the different solutions to the same problems. @KingCoMedicOne @YorksAmbulance @ResusCouncilUK #CPR #restartaheart #InternationalParamedicsDay

Today, myself and friends/colleagues from @YorksAmbulance climbed (and survived) Mount Snowdon in Wales. Lovely, if not tiring, cold, wet, windy day out 🥵🏔️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 #mountsnowdon #teambuilding – at Wales, United Kingdom
