Survival - First Aid Kits

An organised and properly stocked first aid kit can give you peace of mind in a medical emergency. Being prepared could help you save a life.

Buying a first aid kit is a convenient option. First aid kits are sold in different shapes and sizes and for different uses. (healthdirect, 2022)

What is Survival Emergency Solutions?

Founded in 1988, twin brothers Jerry and Tim Tyrrell started Survival Emergency Solutions in response to personal tragedy. Now a leading innovator in first aid and emergency solutions, their mission is to offer safety and security to every individual around the world. 

Initially they began with a first aid emergency handbook, selling over 2 million copies world wide and going on to win the Australian Design Award.  The Tyrrell twins have now developed an extensive range of first aid products and has just released the latest version of their iFirstAid app.
