'Kids should learn how to treat stab wounds'
Birmingham Mail
|January 16, 2026
MP AND FORMER SURGEON SAYS LIVES COULD BE SAVED BY MOVE
CHILDREN should be taught how to treat stab wounds and “catastrophic bleeding” in schools, a Midland MP has urged.
Dr Neil Shastri-Hurst, a former surgeon, warned many people do not know what to do in an emergency.
He said lessons and workshops would help save lives and people who witnessed car crashes, stabbings or “terror-style attacks” could intervene in the critical moments after an incident to provide aid and get assistance.
The Solihull West and Shirley MP, pictured inset, said the changes would be “proportionate” and would not put pressure on schools.
They would also teach youngsters how to keep themselves safe and assess risk to themselves.
