This week, we’re shining a spotlight on an incredible initiative from the student paramedics at Liverpool John Moores University.


The LJMU Paramedic Society is bringing back their award-winning 24-hour CPR Marathon — raising awareness of lifesaving skills and vital funds for the North West Air Ambulance Charity.


From 6pm Friday the 24th, to 6 pm Saturday the 25th of October, teams will perform continuous CPR for 24 hours straight inside the Student Life Building — alongside CPD sessions, emergency service demonstrations, and free CPR training open to everyone.


Last year, they raised over £3,000, and this year they’re aiming to do it again, supporting a charity that receives no government or NHS funding but delivers advanced critical care across the North West every single day.
