DALTON students have learnt life-saving skills by joining forces with community heroes.
Dowdales School supported the Restart a Heart Day 2017 campaign to help create the next generation of lifesavers.
Restart a Heart Day is a UK wide initiative which aims to train at least 200,000 secondary school students up and down the country in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) skills.
The event is delivered through a partnership with The North West Ambulance Service NHS Trust, Resuscitation Council UK, British Heart Foundation and local fire services.
The Restart a Heart team who led the life-saving lessons includes paramedics, nurses, first responders and PCSOs.
The life-saving lesson will teach pupils how to recognise a cardiac arrest and how to provide urgent help by doing effective CPR.
The Dowdales School community said they are extremely proud to be a part of such a worthwhile campaign.
