THANK YOU FOR BEING A KSS LIFESAVER
You’ve joined our Army of KSS Lifesavers!
For any questions please don’t hesitate to contact us on 01634 471 900 or email community@aakss.org.uk
Since 2023, we’ve reached over 150,000 people with our KSS Lifesaver training, largely focussed around our commitment to Restart a Heart Day activity. That success has given us a strong foundation to evolve our approach and think differently about how we create lasting impact.
Our ambition to create an Army of Lifesavers remains unchanged – we know this Army can make a huge difference in survival from Cardiac Arrest.
