Northern Beaches Gets CPR friendly

Ian Hutchinson (‘Hutch’) knows what it’s like to be dead. In 2018, while out bike riding with his mate Don MacKee, he died, and remained clinically dead for 19 long minutes!

Unlike 91% of those who suffer a sudden cardiac arrest, Ian was fortunate to survive, thanks to Don and some quick thinking good Samaritan bystanders CPR skills.

Get CPR friendly in 60 minutes

Following his recovery, Don & Hutch founded CPRfriendly.org in memory of, and on behalf of, the 91% less fortunate that don’t survive. To help turn those statistics around, they are, through CPRfriendly.org, (a NSW Community Service Award winner) on a quest to get everyone CPR friendly and have more access to public defibrillators.

Practical & CPR friendly

Don & Hutch uniquely share their personal life-saving experience between them in a practical, but fun CPR friendly way that includes:

  • Practical, quick & easy CPR friendly skills

  • Creating good outcomes out of bad situations

  • Time-effective & productive defibrillator awareness

  • Heart smart community vision
