🌊 If you fall into cold water, this one technique could save your life.
As the weather warms up, more of us are heading near the water — and every year UK lives are lost to cold water shock. The instinct is to panic and thrash, but that's the most dangerous thing you can do.
Instead, remember Float to Live:
💙 Lean back and float
💙 Spread your arms and legs
💙 Let the cold water shock pass
💙 Control your breathing, then call for help or swim to safety
It works at the coast, in rivers, lakes and reservoirs. Please share this with someone you care about. 💙

❤️ Where do you think most cardiac arrests happen?
Not in hospitals. Not in the street. At home — around 80% of them.
Which means if it ever happens, the person reaching for a defibrillator is most likely to be you, for someone you love.

Most homes don't have one — usually because of a few myths: that they're too complicated, that you might do harm, that they're big and expensive. We've busted all of them in our latest blog, and explained why a compact personal defibrillator like the HeartHero belongs in every household. 👇

We’ve heard some interesting ones over the years… 😅
Butter, toothpaste, ice, vinegar, even egg whites.

🧈 Please don’t put butter on a burn.
It feels soothing but it traps heat in the skin and makes the damage worse.
Cool running water · 20 minutes · that’s it.
