About YourStance
YourStance is a team of experienced doctors, nurses and clinicians teaching young people in London vulnerable to serious youth violence how to respond to an emergency.
We teach young people aged 11 – 25 how to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and haemorrhage control to enable them to act as ‘zero responders’ before a first responder arrives.
Established in 2019, the organisation has taught over 3,500 young people and run nearly 300 workshops across London.
We now also deliver workshops to professionals supporting young people, empowering them to save lives. We work along side the NHS and other statutory organisations but are entirely dependant on grant funding.
