Knowing how to perform CPR correctly can save a life ❤️
Here’s a quick guide:

👩‍🦰 Adults: Both hands between the ni***es – press 5cm (2 inches) deep.
👧 Children: One hand between the ni***es – press 5cm (2 inches) deep.
👶 Infants: Two fingers just below the ni**le line – press 4cm (1.5 inches) deep.

Stay calm, call 999, start CPR, and use the nearest defibrillator if available.
You can’t do harm by trying — but you could save a life.

Following the sad news of our container being destroyed along with all the contents, we have had a mass of support from the community.

We have decided to set up a go fund me to help raise funds towards the replacement of the container making it more secure and building up our equipment again.

Any donations no matter how big are small will help us rebuild for the community!

Today we waved goodbye to our wonderful Sian B! Sian has been our “yo-yo” 🤣 bouncing back to help us in times of need! Sian’s new clinic is now really busy and she needs to put her time into that and her beautiful family! We will miss her lots and hoping she bounces back again one day! Sian can be found in her Llandovery clinic and we know some patients will be visiting her there soon!

As World Mental Health Day 2025 approaches, let’s pause and reflect. 💚

Mental health isn’t just a conversation for one day — it’s a daily reality for millions. It’s the quiet battles, the invisible weight, the strength it takes to simply keep going. This year’s theme is “Mental Health is a Universal Human Right” a powerful reminder that care, compassion, and support should never be a privilege.

Whether you’re thriving, surviving, or somewhere in between, your story matters. Your feelings are valid.

Let’s normalize:

• Checking in on friends without needing a reason
• Saying “I’m not okay” without shame

Let’s make this October 10th not just a day of awareness, but a spark for change. 💚
