Celebrating Heart Month with Public Hearts Defib Campaign

February is always our busiest month of the year, and the extra day of this leap year came in handy!

Throughout the course of February our our not-for-profit community campaign continued its work and after 5 years, we are very proud to share that we are registered pas a CIC – a Community Interest Company.

As part of Heart Month our activities with the community by delivering a free Family First Aid session with Cheltenham Borough Homes at St Paul’s Community Hub during Half Term week.

Clare Arthur held a series of talks to increase defib awareness and to mark the launch of our community Heart Sreening campaign, which will be held at The Schoolhouse Cafe on 25 April 2024.

The month ended on a high note when Public Hearts was featured on BBC Radio Gloucestershire with Jon Smith’s Monday Breakfast Show, 26 April which was followed up with a national news story celebrating “Cheltenham as the Defibrillator Capital of the South West.”

With 66 of our 72 publicly accessible defibs being installed in the last 2 yaers – thats a fitting accloade for Heart Month!

I attended my first course yesterday and what a wonderfully empowering experience it was. The highly trained paramedic teaching put us at ease straight away and I am looking forward to learning more of these invaluable skills. Lovely staff and great communication too. I will be recommending these courses to everyone - thank you.

Brilliant course! Amazing to be able to practice CPR with a live link to assessment software. Now I know my skills are going to be effective if ever needed. Very reassuring to have my own CPR dummy for the duration of the course, and super confident of the safety protocols that Clare and the Tidal team have in place.

Fantastic courses, super friendly and helpful staff and owners. We wouldn't go anywhere else for our emergency first aid at work training.

A genuinely lovely company. Very concerned for their clients' happiness and satisfaction. Very professional and organised everything beautifully. The trainers were AMAZING. Really bright and knowledgeable, able to respond to questions, kind, funny, friendly and approachable. Training can sometimes feel only partially useful, but this all felt like things we needed and would use, presented thoughtfully and clearly by brilliant trainers. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Tidal and will certainly use them again. Thank you!

Had a first aid at work training with Tidal and it was a great experience overall. The teacher was clear and very knowledgeable, the class went at a really good pace there was plenty of time to ask questions when needed yet the day went by very quickly!

After attending this first aid training I was impressed with the amount of information that was covered in the day as well as being taught in such an engaging manor so the information was retained well. I especially liked that the trainer for the course was an active Paramedic and was able to relate the first aid training to real life scenarios and experiences and share stories which kept the course interesting and gave character to the course. Overall an enjoyable training course which has left me feeling confident in providing many forms of first aid, highly recommended.

Wonderful training day, I now feel so much more confident in delivering First Aid thanks to Tidal Training Direct. I hope I don't need to use my skills but I am pleased I have the confidence and vital knowledge available to help save someone's life.
