What would you do if your friend’s been stabbed?

Art Against Knives and The Brit­ish Red Cross have teamed up with group of young people to co-cre­ate a film about First Aid. These cre­at­ive anim­a­tions retell true stor­ies of how simple First Aid steps can save a life.

In Lon­don, around 400 people a month are injured in knife related attacks. 2013 saw the death of four teen­agers with­in the first few months. Although thank­fully, the Office for Nation­al Stat­ist­ics repor­ted these types of crimes have dropped by 16%.

Know­ing First Aid is an essen­tial skill that can help pre­vent deaths. Being able to act in an emer­gency could be the dif­fer­ence between you sav­ing a friend or los­ing them.

See how easy it is to save someone’s life by watch­ing Chris’  story.
