adhesive tape (the sort you use with cotton wool if a wound is bleeding)
cotton wool
safety pins (for bandages)
SCISSORS (dh once gave first aid to a woman bitten by a dog on the underground - no scissors in station first aid kit caused many problems trying to make a bandage).

Paracetamol - or is it not allowed these days?

Think it's just a very dilute saline solution - we have little phials at school.

Don't use cotton wool or medicated wipes that contain alcohol.

Current advice is not to use bottles of eyewash. They are used very rarely and are often out of date. The best thing to do is to use running water.
