Here at The Lamb Inn, Axminster, we are raising funds to purchase a defibrillator. The closest one currently is eight minutes away, which is too far to make a difference. I will be taking part in a sponsored skydive at Dunkeswell in order to help raise the funds.

Despite advancements, the overall effectiveness of CPR remains disappointingly low. Anywhere from 4% to 16% of patients who received bystander CPR are eventually discharged from the hospital, and about 18% of seniors who receive CPR even at the hospital survive to be discharged.

Quick access of a defibrillator increases an individuals chances of survival to 70%!

When cardiac arrest occurs, defibrillation is the only means of restarting the heart and preventing death. Having an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) at hand can save lives.
