Have you or someone close to you been affected by an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest?
Whether you've experienced a cardiac arrest, performed CPR, or used a Public Access Defibrillator, your experience could be incredibly valuable to help the Northern Ireland Ambulance Service (NIAS) understand the impact these events can have on individuals, families and communities across Northern Ireland.
Your story could inspire others, help shape future community resuscitation initiatives and help save more lives.
