Personal Tragedy Sparks Passion for Life-Saving Skills
Miss England, Milla Magee, is throwing her weight behind a campaign supported by Prince William to make CPR training a mandatory part of the school curriculum. The 24-year-old beauty queen recently revealed the heartbreaking stories of her two grandfathers, both of whom passed away from fatal heart attacks before she had the chance to meet them.
A Tragic Inspiration
Milla shared the devastating accounts of her grandfathers' deaths, highlighting how their lives could have been saved if someone had known CPR. Her personal loss has fueled her passion for first aid skills and inspired her to advocate for CPR training in schools to empower younger generations with life-saving knowledge.
Turning Tragedy into Inspiration
Despite the absence of her grandparents, Milla has dedicated herself to honoring their memory by promoting the importance of CPR. Her initiative, Go Far With CPR, aims to educate children and communities about first aid and has garnered praise from Prince William himself during a recent visit to her hometown in Cornwall.
From Beauty Queen to Advocate
Since winning the title of Miss England, Milla has used her platform to advocate for CPR training in schools and encourage others to take up first aid courses. Her petition on Change.Org to make CPR training mandatory in schools has gained momentum, and she is determined to translate awareness into action by meeting with lawmakers.
Keeping Her Grandparents' Legacy Alive
Milla, who will be competing in Miss World in February, believes that CPR is a crucial skill that transcends age and language, capable of saving lives in critical moments. Despite their absence, Milla feels her grandparents' presence in her heart and is determined to make them proud through her advocacy efforts.
