Why HeartSafe Is the Right Choice for Your Community

Many organisations stock a basic first aid kit and believe they’re covered. But when catastrophic bleeding occurs – from a serious accident, violent incident, or medical emergency – standard first aid kits don’t contain the tools needed. Every minute of severe blood loss matters.

Unlocked 24/7 Public Access

Unlike locked cabinets, HeartSafe dispensers are immediately accessible no code, no key, no delay when every second counts.

Free UK Mapping & Registration

Your kit is registered on the national bleed kit locator map, so emergency services can direct the public straight to it.

UK-Manufactured to ISO9001 Standards

All cabinets and housings are produced by ISO9001:2015 and ISO14001 accredited UK manufacturers. Reliability guaranteed.

Clear Body Mapping Instructions

Developed with SWAST medical professionals any member of the public can use this kit effectively in an emergency, no training required.

Trusted by the UK's Emergency Services

HeartSafe operates in official partnership with the organisations that respond to life-threatening bleeding emergencies every day.

NHS England

Our bleed kits are produced in collaboration with NHS England South-West, ensuring contents meet the highest clinical standards.

South West Ambulance Service

Avon & Somerset Police

Over 600 HeartSafe bleed kits have been funded and placed across Avon & Somerset through our official police partnership scheme.

Trusted Across the UK

From schools and shopping centres to community groups and businesses. HeartSafe kits are protecting people everywhere.

“We installed three HeartSafe BK-2 dispensers across our site. The whole process from order to fitting was seamless. Knowing they’re registered on the national map and accessible 24 hours gives us real peace of mind.”

James R.
Facilities Manager, Bristol

“After a serious incident near our school, we decided to act immediately. HeartSafe had us installed within the week. The body mapping instructions mean anyone can use it including our older students.”

Sarah M.

Headteacher, Somerset

“The NHS approval was what sold it for us. We needed something the community would trust, and HeartSafe delivers that. The free mapping registration is a bonus everyone can find ours now.”

Tom B.
Community Council, Avon

Pole/Railings Attachment Kit For The Model 2 Dispenser

Some people have difficulty with listed buildings, where community bleed kits are needed most. For this reason, we have designed a new attachment, a Bleed Kit Model 2 dispenser, around poles of different diameters, from 75mm up to 200mm, so a street sign type posts up to a telegraph or CCTV pole. It will also work on railings.

Latest Partnership Statement

9th February 2026

South Western Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust and Avon and Somerset Police said: “We recognise Shanine Wright’s positive and profound impact following the tragic loss of her brother Darrian in February 2024. Her efforts to provide her local community with life-saving equipment and raise awareness of knife violence demonstrate her unswerving passion to protect others from harm.

“The Avon and Somerset Bleed Kit Partnership was set up to provide essential first aid equipment in key public locations in the event of a catastrophic bleed. The bleed kits are immediately accessible to the public in unlocked cabinets. They are designed to stop or slow blood loss, improving a patient’s chances of survival before the emergency services arrive.

“The partnership, guided by the clinical expertise of the South Western Ambulance Service, seeks to bridge the gap between injury occurring and professional help arriving. When a 999 call is received regarding a person bleeding heavily, call takers can escalate the call to gain clinician support, and the caller can be directed to a bleed kit if one is local.

“To date, we have installed 742 partnership kits in key public locations across Avon and Somerset, and they have been used 13 times. While they are often associated with knife crime, they can be used in any incident involving severe bleeding, such as road traffic collisions or workplace accidents.

“To ensure our partnership kits are readily available to the public, cabinets remain unlocked at all times, and each one is assigned a community ‘guardian’ to monitor it. For extra protection, neighbourhood police officers also check them as part of their patrols.

“If a kit is used, stolen or damaged, a volunteer driver from Avon and Somerset Police will be alerted to replace it as soon as possible. While a kit is out of service, it will be automatically removed from the mapping function used by emergency call handlers. The partnership’s ongoing legacy fund means that we will replace or repair any of our emergency bleed kits at no extra cost to the owner.

“While bleed kit provision plays a part in preventing tragedy in our communities, tackling the root causes of knife crime, safeguarding vulnerable children, and delivering vital knife crime education and prevention initiatives remain a priority.”

Notes For The Reader

Although there is currently no official guidance on the use of bleed kits, the South Western Ambulance Service has been innovative in seeking ways to bridge the gap between injury occurring and professional help arriving. New national guidance is due in the spring this year.

The South Western Ambulance Service has created a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) to be used within its Emergency Operations Centres for when a call is received regarding a person with catastrophic bleeding. As part of the SOP, call takers can escalate the call to gain clinician support, and the caller can be directed to a bleed kit if one is local. We are also able to direct callers in techniques to control bleeding without available equipment, ahead of an ambulance arriving on scene.

The South Western Ambulance Service has added a critical care clinician to its Emergency Operations Centres. These senior clinicians make proactive contact with ambulance crews to support the care they provide to patients with catastrophic bleeding before specialist assets arrive on scene.

The South Western Ambulance Service has created a freely accessible action card that can be included within all bleed kits, which is colour-coded and matches the 999 call taker advice, to provide extra clarity in times of extreme distress for those calling 999.

The South Western Ambulance Service believes that publicly available life-saving equipment should not be locked away, including defibrillators and bleed kits.

The South Western Ambulance Service’s Emergency Operation Centres do not map any bleed kits. However, the Avon and Somerset Bleed Kit Partnership has a mapping function on an external site, which means any emergency service control room can access it. This increases reach and potential impact. We encourage people to register their bleed kits via the partnership, so our call takers can direct people to them in an emergency.

Welcome To OurBleed Control Kit Training Videos

A set of educational videos has been produced to inform the public on the effective use of the HeartSafe Bleed Control Kit to manage blood loss before the arrival of ambulance services…

This initiative, pioneered through the Community Bleed Kit Partnership, has established a National Standard for emergency trauma response by placing life-saving tools in public spaces.

Originally established by Avon & Somerset Police, HeartSafe and South West Ambulance Service Trust, the model is now being replicated across the UK to provide 24/7 access to NHS-approved medical bleed control kits. The Community Bleed Control Kits are BS8559-1Compliant Critical Injury Pack.

Join us and become part of the Partnership:

● Proven Efficacy: The kits have already been credited with saving 11 confirmed lives through rapid bystander intervention before Emergency Services arrive.

● Accessibility: Bleed Control Kits are housed in approved unlocked dispensers and lamp post-mounted units, ensuring zero delays to deploy to help patients suffering from catastrophic blood loss

● Designed for Bystanders: Despite their professional grade, the Bleed Control kits are specifically endorsed for use by untrained members of the public.

● Strategic Growth: By utilising volunteer installations and affordable hardware, the program has scaled from a local success to a proactive National public health movement.

For those looking to support or implement this model, you can find more information and purchase Bleed Control Kits through the HeartSafe interactive UK-wide Bleed Kit Map and Website.

Find out more about Haemostatic Dressings

Pharma-Algi F delivers professional-grade haemostasis and absorbency ideal for trauma kits and emergency response.

Product Info

Description

Pharma-Algi ® F: Is a haemostatic and absorbent wound dressing, made of 100% calcium alginate fibres, carded and needle punched to form a nonwoven absorbent felt.

Pharma-Algi ® F Product Line is available as flat sheet for superficial wounds or as ribbon for cavity wounds and both need secondary dressing for fixation.

Features

1-Haemostatic effect: due to calcium – sodium ions exchange where calcium ions are donated to the wound which is vital factor for the clotting process.

2-High Absorption capacity: absorb wound exudates and locks it inside the formed gel so prevents skin maceration.

3-Moist wound environment: Upon contact with wound exudates, it rapidly gels which overlays the wound and provides a moist micro-environment that promotes healing and formation of granulation tissue.

4-Conformable and Soft: conforms to wound contours.

5-Atraumatic Dressing removal: gel formation prevents adherence of the dressing to the newly formed tissues.

6-Unique Integrity: allowing removal of the dressing as one piece.

Indicators

Pharma-Algi ® F : Is used as primary dressing to manage full and partial thickness wounds, with moderate to heavy exudates which may also be prone to minor bleeding:

Post-operative Wounds, leg ulcers, pressure ulcers, diabetic ulcers, traumatic wounds, cavity wounds, graft and donor site, fungating carcinomas, superficial and partial thickness burns.

Contraindications

• Do not use on patients with a known allergy to alginates.
• Do not use on dry/low exudating wounds, as the absorption capacity may cause sticking to the wound or cause the wound to dry out and become painful.
• Do not use on Eyes, mucous membranes or tendons, due to the risk of dehydration.
• It is not intended to be used as a surgical sponge or to achieve haemostasis in heavily bleeding wounds.
• Do not use on infected wounds unless under medical supervision.

Precautions

• For single use only. Reuse may cause cross contamination.
• Dispose as a contaminated product.
• Make sure the skin is clean, dry and free from soap residue and lotion to ensure good adhesion.
• Do not stretch the dressing during application as tension can cause skin trauma.
• If the dressing is not easily removed, moisten it with saline, and then remove.

Frequency of Change

Generally dressings should be changed daily in heavily exuding wounds, reducing to twice weekly (or weekly) as healing proceeds.

How does it work?

Alginates are highly absorbent natural materials derived from seaweeds.

The high absorption is achieved via strong hydrophilic gel formation. Alginates are well
known for their haemostatic properties.

1. Cleanse the wound in accordance with normal procedures.
2. Choose a dressing which is slightly larger than the wound and place it in intimate contact with the wound base, ensuring the entire surface is covered.
3. Apply using an appropriate dressing technique.
4. Cover with an appropriate retention dressing. Wound exudate will evaporate from the gel surface; the secondary dressing should not hinder this evaporative process where exudate is heavy.
5. Generally dressings should be changed daily in heavily exuding wounds, reducing to twice weekly (or weekly) as healing proceeds.
6. To remove Pharma-Algi® F/ Pharma-Algi® F Carbon, use tweezers, forceps or a gloved hand to gently lift the dressing away – The dressing may adhere if used on a very lightly exuding wound. Removal of the dressing is facilitated by saturating the wound with saline.

Saving Lives, Building Trust: The Community Bleed Kit Partnership Model

A New Life Saving Initiative to help your safeguard your neighbourhood

Supported by Avon & Somerset Police and NHS

The Avon and Somerset Bleed Kit Partnership stands as a transformative model of community-driven, cross-sector collaboration that is directly saving lives. Born from a vision to tackle rising knife crime and trauma incidents, this initiative brings together Avon and Somerset Police, HeartSafe, NHS England South West, and the South Western Ambulance Service to put vital emergency response tools into the hands of everyday people.

At its heart is a simple but powerful idea: provide the public with accessible, easy-to-use Bleed Kits that can control catastrophic bleeding in the critical minutes before professional help arrives. These cost-effective kits—strategically placed in public locations and fully mapped for emergency services—are already making a difference, with over 700 kits deployed and many more on the way.

Inspired by lessons from the 2018 Kerslake Report on the Manchester Arena bombing, the initiative doesn’t just react to emergencies—it prepares for them. By prioritising accessibility, simplicity, open data mapping, and public ownership, the Bleed Kit Partnership has created a scalable, sustainable system for community resilience.

Key innovations—like affordable kit dispensers, lamppost-mounted units, and a volunteer-led installation model—have helped overcome barriers and fuel rapid growth. The campaign’s transparency, public trust, and ethical business involvement have driven unprecedented engagement, with demand from councils, schools, businesses, and charities surging across the region.

The impact is clear: approaching 1000 kits are nearly in place, hundreds more are in progress, and a blueprint that any UK community can adopt.

The Bleed Kit Partnership isn’t just a response to violence or accidents—it’s a proactive movement for community empowerment, public health, and shared responsibility. It’s proof that when agencies unite around a common purpose and invite the public to be part of the solution, lives are saved—and communities grow stronger.

It’s not just a local success story. It’s a national model ready to be replicated across the UK.

Emergency Bleed Kits in the UK

Bleed Kits are specifically designed to handle ‘life threatening bleeding’. In the event of a traumatic injury, a person can lose critical amounts of blood within minutes.

A bleed kit package that includes items like haemostatic dressings, trauma dressings, and a tourniquet can benefit a community in several ways. This type of package can be vital in emergencies where there is a severe bleeding injury, allowing bystanders or the injured person themselves to provide immediate aid while waiting for professional medical help.

In 2023, Avon and Somerset Police joined up with HeartSafe and NHS England South West to install over 100 bleed kits across their force area and raise awareness. These have been installed onto the side of existing HeartSafe defibrillators and are immediately accessible to the public in the event of an emergency.

Find out more about this partnership here.

Some of the items Included In The Bleed Kit

There are a number of different products designed to control or stop bleeding.

2x Trauma Dressing

Trauma dressings, a highly absorbent padded dressing can be used to cover the wound followed by sustained pressure to the wound

2x Haemostatic Dressings

Haemostatic dressings accelerate blood clotting to control severe bleeding in trauma situations, reducing blood loss and potentially saving lives.

Tourniquet

Tourniquets are medical devices used to reduce catastrophic bleeding to the arms or legs by applying pressure to stop the blood flow.

Here are some key benefits...

Life Saving: Rapid bleeding control can be the difference between life and death in severe injuries. Haemostatic dressings, trauma dressings, and tourniquets are specifically designed to stop bleeding rapidly and prevent further blood loss, potentially saving lives.

Familiarise where your nearest Bleed Kit can be found: Having such a kit available in public spaces, homes, workplaces, and schools means the community is better prepared to handle emergencies. It can be especially valuable when emergency medical services are delayed.

These available Kits will help demonstrate a level of assistance is available: When community members know that these tools are available and that individuals are trained to use them, it can provide a greater sense of security. People may feel more confident knowing that immediate help is available in case of an accident.

Supports community education and training: The existence of these kits can spur community education efforts about their usage and the importance of first aid. This can help foster a more knowledgeable and prepared community.

Versatility: These kits can be used in various situations, from household and business accidents to more severe incidents like vehicle accidents or situations involving violence.

What Other Questions Do Customers Ask About Our Bleed Kits?

We have compiled a list of frequently asked questions about our Bleed Kits. Just click on the question to see the answer!

What does a bleed kit package include?

A typical bleed kit package includes:

2 x Large Trauma Dressings

2 x Haemostatic Dressings

1 x Tourniquet

Other Items:

2 x Individual Pair of Nitrile Gloves

Medical Shears/Scissors

Foil Blanket

CPR Face Shield

Whistle

What is the purpose of a haemostatic dressing?

A haemostatic dressing is used to promote rapid blood clotting in the event of a severe bleeding injury. It is particularly useful in situations where traditional bandages and pressure are not sufficient to control the bleeding.

NOT to be used on open chest wound, open head wound or the eyes.

How is a trauma dressing different from a regular dressing?

A trauma dressing is larger and more absorbent than regular dressings. It’s designed to manage heavy bleeding and cover large wounds. Direct pressure is then applied on this packing.

When should a tourniquet be used?

A tourniquet should be used when bleeding from a limb cannot be controlled by other means like direct pressure or when a wound is so severe that other treatment methods are not immediately possible. However, it should be applied by a trained individual as incorrect usage can cause additional harm.

It is applied directly to the skin not clothing.

How can I learn to use these items properly?

First Aid training courses are designed to familiarise you with the use of these specially designed tools to assist a patient suffering from blood loss. There are many organisations offering such advice.

Can anyone use this bleed kit package?

While anyone can potentially use the kit, a level of training is naturally an advantage. As a good samaritan, anyone can use a bleed kit to assist in an emergency until the arrival of the Ambulance Service.

Always maintain telephone contact with the 999 Operator at the Ambulance Service. They are trained and able to advise you over the telephone and answer your questions. When using a mobile phone ensure it is on loud speaker.

Where should we keep this bleed kit package in our community?

Ideally, the bleed kit package should be kept in easily accessible locations in public spaces, schools, workplaces, and homes.

More Bleed Kits will become available, such as the joint initiative between Avon & Somerset Police Constabulary and HeartSafe is currently being launched. Existing well known and highly visible HeartSafe Defibrillator Cabinets can have Bleed Kit Dispensers added for local community use.

Does this kit have an expiration date?

Yes, components such as the haemostatic dressings have an expiration date after which they may not be as effective. It’s important to regularly check and replace any expired components.

Does this bleed kit replace the need for professional medical help?

No, this kit is a first aid measure to be used in emergency situations. It is not a replacement for professional medical care. Always call 999 Ambulance Service as soon as possible when encountering a person with a severe bleed injury.

What should I do after using the bleed kit?

After using the bleed kit, ensure that the injured person gets professional medical help as soon as possible. Make sure to inform the healthcare professionals about the steps you took, including the use of the bleed kit, to assist them in their treatment plan. Please also alert HeartSafe to any kits that have been used so we can replace these. Do this by clicking here.
