We are fundraising to purchase an AED (defibrillator) for 24/7 community use on our moor gate.
During our first aid workshops students cover 4 separate life-saving activities: How to perform CPR, How to use an AED (defibrillator), How to use an autoinjector (EpiPen) and How to put someone in the recovery position.
An Automated External Defibrillator (AED) is a portable life saving device that can give a casualty’s heart an electric shock, when it has stopped beating normally in a sudden cardiac arrest. A defibrillator works by checking the casualty's heart rhythm once the defibrillator pads are placed on their chest and giving them a shock if needed. By using a defibrillator before an ambulance arrives, you can significantly increase someone’s chance of survival.
If parents are able to help us and donated, even if it's just £1, there is a link on ParentPay.
