Free training events

Our team of London Lifesavers trainers hold pop up training events across the capital teaching people the simple skills they need to save a life.

Come along and learn to save a life – 76 per cent of cardiac arrests happen in the home – so this training means you could save someone you love.

Support our campaign to fund life-saving defibrillators and CPR training in the communities where it’s most needed.
