The campaign by Dudley borough councillor Kieran Casey has seen the bleed kits given to Dudley College, Halesowen College and King Edwards Vl College in Stourbridge.

Dudley Council is also planning on installing bleed kits in the high streets of Dudley and Brierley Hill.

Gather Cafe, a social interest company in Churchill Shopping Centre, Dudley, has been given one. This cafe is a good location due to its proximity near the bus station.

Dudley College staff will also receive training on how to use the bleed kits.
