EasyJet crew member meets strangers who saved his life after 'widowmaker' heart attack

There were hugs and tears as a cyclist who collapsed in a car park after suffering a massive heart attack was reunited with the strangers who saved his life.

James Heywood lost consciousness due to a blocked major artery while riding his bike past Motor Bodies Widnes at around 1pm on June 15 last year.

This week James and husband Nathan Shillcock visited the garage to meet and thank passer-by Colette Bourke who found James lying unresponsive and “screamed” for help, Rachel Pepper-Brown who rang 999, and Julie Major and Alan Shepphard who gave CPR, as they shared the story of how James survived with the ECHO.
