Defibs save lives 💚 Thanks to quick action from John's @United Airlines colleagues and #TeamLAS he survived a #CardiacArrest last year. After an emotional reunion with Cycle Paramedic Rob, John is calling for others to support our #LondonHeartStarters campaign (link in bio)

Graham was the first ever #CardiacArrest patient to be treated by @LAS_CycleTeam at @HeathrowAirport 20 years ago. "My kids would be without a dad and my grandkids would be without a grandad if it wasn’t for the help of the paramedics. They saved my family from grieving"
