Totally agree, and well done Emma. The UK Resuscitation Council are currently trying to get legislation passed so that CPR (not first aid) must be taught in all schools. Whilst having everyone trained in first aid is a great goal, perhaps a more achievable one is to get CPR in (a foot in the door so to speak) and then see if it can be extended to first aid? I'm sure the New Zealand Resuscitation Council would be interested in hearing about and publicising your petition. You should contact them: www.nzrc.org.nz
