Ben was working in Admiral’s Derby venue in his then role as assistant venue manager. Without warning, a customer playing a machine collapsed unconscious to the floor. Ben sprang into action. Using skills learnt from emergency response training he had recently had at work, and with telephone support from the emergency services, he calmly applied CPR while his colleague rushed from the venue to access an off-site defibrillator.
