A MUM has been reunited with paramedics and bystanders who saved her life when she had a cardiac arrest.

Cathy collapsed at Ashdown Riding Centre near Wootton Bassett during her six-year-old son’s lesson in April 2018.

The 35-year-old local mum stopped breathing, and her face went blue, causing another mum to dial 999 before riding centre owner Chloe and another bystander tried to resuscitate her.

The audio from that astonishing 999 call has been released by South Western Ambulance service today.

Medics used a defibrillator to administer electronic shocks in an effort to restart her heart and she was taken to hospital for emergency heart surgery.

Today at midday Cathy will return to the scene to be reunited with those that battled to save her life.

Cathy said: “If it hadn’t be for them, my husband would no longer have a wife and my son wouldn’t have a mum. It’s changed my perspective on life.”
