We worked closely with a community grieving the tragic loss of one of their own due to severe external blood loss.
They asked us to create a Bleed Control Kit containing everything needed to manage a catastrophic bleed before emergency services arrive. We recognised a critical gap: everyday people, including venue staff, rarely receive bleed control training at the same level as standard first aid.
In response, we created a comprehensive package combining the Bleed Control Kit created by BlueKit Medical with the Zero Responder Bleed Control Skills Workshop, delivered by Salvas Training Services. Together, they provide your staff with the essential tools and training to identify and control life-threatening bleeding, giving them the ability to save lives in the minutes before help arrives.

Rebecca Porter is Managing Director of BlueKit Medical, a family run business which grew from an idea in 2012. The company, which was founded by her father Rajendra, then a hospital theatre manager, was born from an idea of improving the simple surgical procedure tray. The result was a much improved and dependable procedure tray with quality products that performed reliably. From there the business has steadily grown into the company it is today improving the existing models of many surgical supplies.
With years of hard work, Rebecca is now a trusted supplier of surgical procedure packs and instrument kits across the UK.
This meant that Rebecca’s expertise was the perfect match to Michael's vision to create a new 'Bleed Control Kit' that would contain all the elements needed to stem the loss of blood in many a critical situation before the emergency services arrive on the scene.
