The initiative, which has provided CPR training to 151,000 Yorkshire students on Restart a Heart day since 2014, received a Special Recognition Award at the online event. Journalist and broadcaster Christa Ackroyd, who announced the award winners, said the recent high-profile resuscitation of Danish footballer Christian Eriksen highlighted the importance of the campaign. She said: Christian Eriksen is now well due to the incredible life-saving actions taken on the field and that is what Yorkshire Ambulance Service aims to teach which they have done with amazing success.
