Summary
Fifteen-year-old army cadet Jordan Kerr saved a child’s life at Glasgow’s Drumchapel station after spotting him collapse — and instead of seeking glory, he rallied the community to install a defibrillator. His petition sparked over a thousand signatures, leading ScotRail to equip the station with life-saving equipment just six months later. Jordan, now thrilled the device is in place, credits it as far more effective than CPR in emergencies — and thanks ScotRail for acting swiftly. Phil Campbell, ScotRail’s customer operations director, hailed Jordan’s calm bravery and selflessness as heroic, calling him an inspiration to his community. This moment highlights how one young person’s compassion can ignite real change — and how vital accessible medical tools are for public safety.
