Story

I was recently on a first aid course as I run a BootCamp in the lovely Cheam Park.

I was not surprised when I found out that heart attacks cause more than a quarter of deaths in the UK each year. I was shocked however with the difference in survival rates with and without a defibrillator.

If you are treated by a first aider and given CPR you or a loved one have a survival rate of 2-5%.

If you are lucky enough to be treated quickly with a defibrillator (within 3-4 minutes) you survival rates jump significantly to 74%!

With developments in technology absolutely anyone can use a defibrillator to save someones life!

Do you use Cheam Park to walk a dog, exercise, play with your family, enjoy the flower beds or sports facilities? If not you will know numerous people who do?

Well, we don't have a defibrillator ... please donate to allow us to make our Park more safe for all those that take enjoyment from it.
