DRIVERS are to be offered first-aid training to help others on the roads of Huddersfield.
A new course has been launched in West Yorkshire to give professional drivers the skills and confidence to provide first aid in emergency situations on the road.
Organisers of the courses say that basic first aid delivered effectively in the time it takes for paramedics to arrive could have saved many of the lives lost in accidents.
St John Ambulance is urging firms to include first aid in their training so drivers can be the difference between lives lost and lives saved.
To find out more, call 0844 324 5535 and speak to a St John Ambulance training adviser in the West Yorkshire area.
