There are approximately 60,000 out-of-hospital Cardiac Arrests each year in the UK.
Early defibrillation is an essential life saving step in the chain of survival. Anyone can use a defibrillator with no training.
If used promptly, a defibrillator can increase the chance of survival of out-of-hospital Cardiac Arrest from 7% to 40-50%.

I have identified the need for a 24 hour public access defibrillator for Penarth Esplanade and have a proposed location of the front wall of the Lifeboat Station
