MUMS have been brushing up on their first aid and learning some life-saving skills.
Howbury Tumblers, a mother and toddler group based at the Howbury Centre in Slade Green Road, Slade Green, organised a week of training sessions, thanks to a successful bid for Lottery cash.
The group was given £1,155 from Awards for All and used some of the cash to run the sessions to teach mums how to deal with potential life-threatening incidents such as a child choking and how to perform CPR.
The rest of the money was used to buy related toys for the children so they could also take part in the Learn to Care project.
Tumblers’ leader Carole Read said: “The sessions were really helpful for the mums and the children enjoyed bandaging and taking care of their dollies.”
