Community CPR Training - Learn CPR, Save a Life
COMMUNITY CPR TRAINING
Weds 21st Sept 1-3pm
Learn CPR, Save a Life.
Did you know that every week on average, six people suffer a cardiac arrest somewhere in Wellington and Wairarapa.
"The best way to increase someone’s chance of surviving is for everyone in our community to know how to do cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).
Almost 1 in 3 cardiac arrests happen in a public place and performing good CPR increases the chance of survival. When combined with use of an Automated External Defibrillator (AED), survival rates can increase to 80%."
Ka Pai Carterton is supporting the Wellington Free Ambulance to bring their Heartbeat Community CPR training course to our community on Weds 21st Sept from 1-3pm.
The course is fully funded but is limited to 30 people, so please book your spot by emailing hello@kapaicarterton.nz
Our intention with supporting the delivery of this programme is to ensure community has the capability to use defibs effectively and then map defibs already in the community, identifying and prioritising where they should be and work towards having these installed.
More info on the course available here:

Tap Fusion opens Wellington Fringe Festival
New Zealand’s home-grown Tap Dance show, Tap Fusion, will be opening the Wellington Fringe Festival at the Hannah Theatre this weekend. The show is a unique collaboration of New Zealand’s top Tap dancers performing alongside artists of Street Dance, Swing Dance and live musicians. This will be the first time a Tap show has been seen at the Fringe Festival.
Tap Fusion is the work of former New Zealand Dance Champion brothers Brandon and Cameron Carter-Chan. They say the show is designed to expose the diversity of New Zealand artists through Tap Dance by inspiring, uplifting, and promoting the idea of creative collaboration, encouraging people to work with artists outside their social circle, and to increase opportunity and strengthen the arts community as a whole.
Tap Fusion is on at The Hannah Theatre, 12 Cambridge Terrace, Wellington on 13th & 14th February.
