🇬🇧 English

The arrêté of April 8, 2026 allows the French Red Cross to operate under modified regulations concerning training for first aid responders and trainers. Specifically, the number of required participants for the initial training of first aid responders in Damouzy has been reduced from 6 to 4, while still ensuring adequate practical training through volunteer participation. Similarly, the continuing education for first aid trainers in Ajaccio has been adjusted, decreasing the required participants from 5 to 2, also necessitating volunteer involvement for practical exercises. This law aims to ensure that important training can still occur even with lower participant numbers, as long as the conditions are met.
