Campaign idea: Bella saved her mum's life
Bella was seventeen and caring for her mum when newly learned first aid skills helped her save her mum's life.
This story
Bella stepped in as a young carer for her mum, who has a seizure disorder, while also helping look after her two younger brothers and studying at college. A local young carers service provided support with essentials and arranged a first aid course for her. Weeks later, when her mum collapsed and stopped breathing on the way to an event, Bella performed CPR until paramedics arrived.
