Daniel Baird foundation: Control the Bleed is a specialised program designed to equip individuals with the knowledge and skills to manage catastrophic bleeding in emergency situations. Named in memory of Daniel Baird, a young man who tragically lost his life due to uncontrolled bleeding after being stabbed in a nightclub, the course aims to empower people to respond effectively in the critical moments before professional medical help arrives.

The course’s primary goal is to reduce fatalities from severe bleeding by providing bystanders with the essential skills to act immediately. It is often geared toward community members, security personnel, and public venues but is valuable for anyone to learn.
