First Aid Meets TikTok: Red Cross Free Online Training for World First Aid Day

Young people are most often first responders in emergencies, but the least confident to administer first aid treatment, according to research from the Australian Red Cross.

This World First Aid Day, September 11, the Australian Red Cross is running free first aid training over Zoom – and TikTok – to encourage more young people to take up the skill. 

Australian Red Cross regional area leader Deb Lowe spoke to Hope 103,2 about the importance of learning first aid, even in the midst of a pandemic.
