Bleed Control Kit Training – Knife Crime Awareness week 2026

Following the installation of a public Bleed Control Kit in Wembley (outside Box Park), Turtle Engineering is delivering a free community training session at Brent Civic Centre, the Base (1st floor) as part of Knife Crime Awareness Week 2026.

This session will equip residents with the knowledge and confidence to respond safely and effectively during a bleeding emergency. Attendees will learn what to do if someone is seriously injured, how to quickly access and use a Bleed Control Kit, and how to keep themselves and others safe while help is on the way. The training is practical, accessible, and suitable for people with no prior medical experience.

By empowering local residents with lifesaving information, this session aims to strengthen community safety, awareness, and preparedness.

What you’ll learn:

• How to recognise and respond to life‑threatening bleeding
• Where local Bleed Control Kits are located and how to access them
• Basic guidance on using bleed control equipment
• How to stay safe and act responsibly in an emergency

This training is open to all residents and community members who want to play a role in keeping Wembley safer.
