Every year around 60,000 people have cardiac arrests outside of hospitals, but only a few casualties survive.
CPR and early defibrillation within the first three minutes can give up to a 70%** chance of survival.
Find out how to use a defibrillator by watching our short video. There is no reason not to use one!!
The Haslingfield defibrillator is in the old BT phone box on the High Street (opposite Lilac Close).
