Produced by the North West Ambulance Service (NWAS), the short film is targetted at children of primary school age. It follows seven-year-old Daisy as she finds her grandad unconscious. She is seen dialling 999 and how this triggers a series of events which leads to her grandad being taken to hospital.

The Trust’s mascot, Pandamedic, is featured in the film, explaining how emergency calls are handled in a way that children can understand and relate with.

Julie Butterworth of NWAS said: “We have produced this video as part of ongoing work that we are doing as a Trust to teach school children about when they should and shouldn’t call us, highlighting the message that 999 is for life-threatening emergencies only.
