Background

Introduce legislation so that all family restaurants with soft plays, climbing frames and play parks are required to have a first aider on every shift and a fully stocked first aid box. This could be known as Blakes Law.

Additional details

Accidents have taken place at soft play facilities, including broken arms. Children can be helped sooner if first aid is administered on site, reducing the likelihood of long-term effects.
