Defibrillators are life saving equipment for use when
someone’s heart has stopped.

THIS EQUIPMENT SAVES LIVES

It is designed to be used by a person without training.  The equipment is automatic and only requires you to follow simple instructions given by the machine.

If you suspect that someone
is having a heart attack dial 999 immediately and ask for
the ambulance service and
follow their directions

It is a good idea to familiarise yourself with the locations and how you would get to them in an emergency.

THE DEFIBRILLATOR IS ACCESSED BY A CODE

In the case of an emergency call 999.  The ambulance service will advise you if the emergency requires the defibrillator and give you the access code.

We now have the third defibrillator ready to be installed at The Rose & Crown but cabinet mounting has been delayed.    However, we expect it to  be on the wall very soon. The plan for the forth defibrillator is to locate it on the new doctors’ surgery  in the area to minimise the time it takes to access the equipment.  Please continue to support the fundraising.

We currently (15.04.13) have Four defibrillators installed in the village. Do you know where they are?
