... that over 200,000 school pupils in London are training through the Saving Londoners' Lives project?

Article is long enough and new enough. It is clearly written (although I suspect there is an appropriate article somewhere to link at the first mention of emergency life support; this is clearly standard terminology in the UK, but I do not find that fact reflected in our articles or categories on first aid). Unfortunately when I checked the cited sources (I looked at everything except 2 of the 4 refs on awards) I found copyvio; I have endeavoured to fix this, but if there are any more places where the wording is very close, they should be rephrased. Also, there is an unreferenced paragraph, and it includes the hook fact. There needs to be at least one reference cited in that paragraph, and the specific sentence with the hook fact - over 200,000 school pupils currently in the programme - must have a reference by DYK rules, so more than one ref in the paragraph may be necessary. (I already noted a point without a reference was covered in a reference cited elsewhere, and made it into a named reference; this may possibly be the situation with the hook fact, but if it is on the Saving Londoners' Lives site, I didn't find the appropriate subpage.) --For completeness' sake, although not required by DYK, it would also be nice to know when the programme started? One source seems to imply 2005? And whose idea was it, do we know? Yngvadottir (talk) 16:28, 15 April 2012 (UTC)
