Child burnt with hot water

We were not at home but at a Country Race Point to Point, where thankfully there was a st. John's Ambulance. Luckily we poured cold water straight on the burn then they put a gel pad of teatree on it. Amazing, in 24 hours the burn was significantly reduced. It was a superficial burn, but really scary nevertheless. I am out to buy one of those pads to keep in my Emergency kit here at home, anyone know where to find them? Really good to have the non-sticky sterilized dressing for aftercare - it was hot outside today and we covered the burn with the dressing so that it was not made worse by the sunlight. Also putting manuka honey on it...seems to work!

Not sure, but aloe vera jelly is a miricle for burns imo, though costly at around £10 a tube.
