For 52 years, Asian Christian Fellowship (ACF), Wolverhampton, has been a place of faith, fellowship and community, welcoming people from all backgrounds. Under the leadership of Pastor Hari, who succeeded the church’s founder, Mr Somers, ACF continues its longstanding commitment to serving the local community.

Today, the church is seeking to build on this legacy by raising funds to purchase and install a publicly accessible Automated External Defibrillator (AED) at its premises. This will provide potentially lifesaving equipment for church members, local residents and the wider Wolverhampton community.

This appeal is particularly important in recognising and raising awareness of cardiovascular health and the increased risk of heart disease experienced ethnic minority communities who can often face inequalities in access to timely medical care. Early CPR and access to a defibrillator can significantly improve survival following a cardiac arrest, and we want our church to become a community hub where everyone, regardless of ethnicity, faith or background, can benefit from access to this vital resource.

Every donation, however big or small, could help save a life. Please support our appeal and help us make Wolverhampton a safer, healthier community.
