Wow - @margatewi.bsky.social's resolution passed with an enormous majority! 97.7% of members voted through Bystanders can be Lifesavers - a new campaign for 25/26; championing CPR skills, esp tackling reticence to cut or remove women's bras in order to giving life-saving help for heart attacks!

We are thrilled to confirm that our lifesaving proposal is to become the new national campaign for @womensinstitute.bsky.social
The WI has been such an important campaigning body for over a century, & to think that Bystanders Can Be Lifesavers, will become part of that- wow!

#WI_AM2025 Now we're hearing about the resolution for a new WI campaign, Bystanders can be Lifesavers - proposed by @margatewi.bsky.social. It would improve access to defibrillator training, and challenge reticence about removing or cutting bras. You could save a woman's life!

We’ve filled nine bags of rubbish in Northdown Park as part of a litter picking session this morning (Sunday 11 May).
We collected discarded drinks cans and bottles, bagged dog mess and any other litter we saw.
Thank you to @thanetcouncil.bsky.social for collecting the filled bags afterwards. 🙌
