If your baby or child stopped breathing would you know what to do? By learning some simple techniques, you could help keep your child breathing until help arrived. Cuts to services have meant that these techniques are no longer regularly taught to new mums.

Sedgefield Labour Woman’s Forum is currently organising free Royal Life Saving Society ‘BABY SAVE A LIFE’ classes across the Sedgefield constituency. We have two organised locally for the 26th January, one in School Aycliffe Community Hall 10.00am till 11.00am and one in Heighington Village Hall 12 noon till 1.00pm.

These are open to mums, dads, grandparents and anyone who looks after small children. They are FREE, but spaces are limited so get there early to ensure one. If you run a community facility and would like us to run a free class, then please drop me an email at teddywmoon89@gmail.com and we can see if we can help.

Cllr Kathy Beetham.
