Life saving bleed kits now operational thanks to Rotary

Rotary have been working behind the scenes with Leighton Linslade Town Council and the Community Policing Team to provide potentially life saving Bleed Kits to the local community Rotary have funded 5 Bleed Kits in Leighton Linslade all of which are located in venues identified in consultation with the Town Council and Community Policing Team, these being our beloved Post Office, Multi Storey CP, Library, Astral Pk and Mentmore Pavilion.

So some may say What is a Bleed Kit?

A bleed kit, also known as a haemorrhage control kit, is a specialised first aid kit designed to manage severe bleeding incidents. Unlike standard first aid kits that contain items for general injuries, a bleed kit includes specific tools to control and stop excessive bleeding, which can be life-saving in critical situations.
