Challenge You To Learn First Aid in 2010
Let me ask you this. If you found
a child lying face down in a pool, would you know what to do?
If you said “No!”, then unfortunately you are not alone. In a report
released in May 2007 it was shown that “Only 7% of Australians were
confident to administer CPR or First Aid at the scene of a serious accident”
This is an appalling statistic, and here is another that I also found, “40%
of all deaths in Children Under 5 are caused by DROWNING”.
Having two Nieces’ in this age bracket and my cousins son being just 3, I felt
that it was time I used all the resources of my company to improve these
statistics and if I save just one life, then it is all worthwhile.
My team and I decided that our company wouldn’t be a company that complains to
the politicians to do something about this appalling situation. We are going to
lead the charge and solve it ourselves … but with your help.
So here is my challenge to you.
I, Christopher John Le Roy,
Managing Director of the One-on-One Learning Centre hereby challenge 10,000
residents in the Townsville Region to become fully qualified in First
Aid and CPR in 2010. I hereby name this challenge – First Aid Challenge
10,000 Townsville.
With your support and commitment we will realize our dream and bring those
appalling statistics down.
Did you know that, “Statistics show that 80% of people, who render assistance
in an emergency, will know the person in distress?” Do you have the skills
to save a family member?
Will you take on my Challenge?

Chris Le Roy
Managing Director

P.S Thank you from my team and I for supporting First Aid Challenge 10,000! |
