Why learn CPR with RevivR

CPR is an emergency lifesaving procedure, performed when the heart stops beating, often called a cardiac arrest. It is necessary to save the life of someone in cardiac arrest.

Each year over 40,000 people have an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in the UK. Less than 1 in 10 survive. Giving CPR promptly and using a defibrillator can more than double the chances of survival.

Learning CPR with RevivR is free, simple and convenient. All you need is a cushion and your phone or tablet.
