“THOUSANDS of city teenagers are to be offered lifesaving training in memory of a schoolboy who died moments after winning a school swimming race.
Every 14 to 16 year-old in Liverpool will be able to enrol on an emergency first aid course following the tragic death of 12-year-old Oliver King.
The fit and active pupil died during a sports lesson at King David High School, in Childwall, in March last year, from medical condition sudden arrhythmic death syndrome (SADS) – which claims at least 12 lives a week.
The Oliver King Foundation has launched an online petition calling on the Government to install defibrillators in all public buildings by 2017, and to offer those aged 12 to 35 a scan that could pick up SADS.”
