The kit we hope you never have to use and that you’ll never regret having.
The Public Access Trauma Kit (PAcT) is designed to provide life-saving aid in the critical moments following a terrorist attack when paramedics are unable to respond immediately. Developed with input from the Royal College of Surgeons and other medical experts, this kit is tailored for easy use by untrained individuals under extreme stress. It features military-grade components, including tourniquets and wound dressings, and is recognised by emergency services across the UK. Essential for high-traffic areas like entertainment venues, schools, and transport hubs, the PAcT kit ensures vital care is available when it’s needed most.
Featured on The One Show
On 3 September 2024, BBC’s The One Show featured a segment about a partnership between Manchester City Council, CityCo, and Steroplast Healthcare, which saw 177 Public Access Trauma (PAcT) Kits distributed across venues in Manchester’s hospitality and entertainment sectors. This initiative addresses the “care gap” – the crucial period between a serious incident, such as a terrorist attack, and the arrival of emergency services.
Figen Murray, a campaigner for Martyn’s Law, was interviewed to discuss the importance of being prepared for such incidents, emphasising how essential tools like the PAcT Kit are in public spaces. Her involvement highlighted the urgency of equipping venues with life-saving resources. At the event, a Steroplast healthcare professional led a training session for venue staff, showing them how to use the PAcT Kit’s contents, including easy-to-use tourniquets and trauma dressings. The session demonstrated how even those without medical experience can effectively manage life-threatening injuries using the kit.

Ah, the world of cleaning products is vast and varied! At the forefront, we have all-purpose cleaners, perfect for tackling a myriad of surfaces. Then, we have disinfectants, essential for banishing germs. Glass cleaners keep your windows and mirrors sparkling. Bathroom cleaners handle soap scum and grime, while kitchen cleaners tackle grease and food residues. Floor cleaners maintain the shine and cleanliness of your walking spaces, and let’s not forget the specialty cleaners for delicate surfaces like wood and stainless steel.
Natural versus chemical – the age-old debate! Natural cleaning products can be quite effective, often harnessing the power of ingredients like vinegar, baking soda, and essential oils. However, their effectiveness can vary. For instance, while they excel in general cleaning, they might not disinfect as robustly as their chemical counterparts. It’s a balancing act between efficacy and environmental impact.
Mixing cleaning products? A resounding no! It’s a risky endeavor, often leading to harmful chemical reactions. Take, for example, the perilous combination of bleach and ammonia, which creates toxic chloramine vapors. Stick to one product at a time and always adhere to the manufacturer’s guidelines.
The secret lies in the label. Always check the product label for usage instructions and warnings. If in doubt, perform a spot test on a small, inconspicuous area of the surface. This helps ensure the product doesn’t cause damage or discoloration, saving you from unwanted surprises.
Cleaning and disinfecting – two sides of the same coin. Cleaning is all about removing dirt, dust, and impurities from surfaces. Disinfecting, on the other hand, involves using chemicals to kill germs. Remember, for disinfecting to be effective, cleaning should precede it, ensuring no barriers to germ-killing.
Patience is key with disinfectants. The contact time, or the duration a disinfectant needs to remain wet on a surface, varies by product. This critical information is typically listed on the product label, ensuring you get the germ-killing effectiveness you seek.
Absolutely! Some disinfectants are safe for surfaces that come into contact with food. However, these often require rinsing with water after use. Look for products explicitly labelled as safe for food-contact surfaces, and meticulously follow the instructions.
For the eco-conscious cleaner, a treasure trove awaits. Eco-friendly cleaning products often feature natural ingredients like vinegar, baking soda, lemon juice, castile soap, and essential oils. Many commercial brands also offer biodegradable and non-toxic options, making green cleaning a breeze.
Proper storage is paramount. Always keep cleaning products in their original containers with labels intact. Store them in a cool, dry place, away from children and pets. Ensure the storage area is well-ventilated, preventing accidental exposure to fumes.
Accidents happen. If ingestion or contact occurs, immediately follow the emergency instructions on the product label. For ingestion, contact a poison control centre or seek medical help without delay. For skin or eye contact, rinse thoroughly with water and seek medical attention if necessary.
Delicate surfaces demand special care. Use pH-neutral cleaners specifically designed for stone surfaces. Steer clear of acidic or abrasive cleaners that can damage the stone. Clean gently with a soft cloth or sponge and dry thoroughly to maintain the surface’s pristine condition.
For a gleaming finish, use a microfiber cloth paired with a stainless steel cleaner or a mild dish soap and water mixture. Always wipe in the direction of the grain and dry with a clean cloth to prevent streaks and water spots, ensuring your appliances shine like new.
