After his talk on water safety and how to stay out of trouble at the sea Charles spends as much time as he can teaching the children why they should do CPR on someone who has drowned. Would it not be fantastic if all our children learned how to do CPR before they left Primary school?WaterWise is proudly sponsored by TNPA.Charles McHelm Charles McHelmA Belthorn primary school learner practices CPR.
