Defibrilator locations

The statistics for heart attacks in the UK are alarming, with around 270,000 people suffering a heart attack each year, about a third of whom die before reaching hospital. Sudden cardiac arrest is a leading cause of premature death but, with immediate treatment, many lives can be saved. The swift use of a defibrillator, with its visual and verbal instructions, make it very easy to use and can make a critical difference by delivering an electric shock to re-start the heart. Early defibrillation can triple a person's chance of survival.

There are defibrillators located at various sites around the Borough. The location of each defibrillator within your area can be found in the attached link : Defib finder - find the defibrillators nearest you.  The site will update access and time availability for UpToDate information.
