Story
We would to take this opportunity to ask for donations to fund a life saving AED defibrillator to be sited at York Golf Range and 9 Hole Golf Course.
Every year in the UK, Sudden cardiac Arrest is responsible for the deaths of 100,000 people, making it the nation's biggest killer. In fact, it kills more people than lung cancer, breast cancer and AIDs combined. Access to an AED would save thousands of lives every year. A cardiac arrest can affect anyone at any time – from young children at school, to adults when they’re at home, work or out in public places. Golf courses are one of the most common places for cardiac arrest to occur.
If you have a heart attack, use of both CPR and an AED increases your chance of survival by more than 50%, compared to just a 9% increase in survival chances if CPR alone is used.
We intend to locate the AED defibrillator in the entrance to the reception/golf shop inside a cabinet accessible to all members, visitors and staff.

2 years agoThank you for the kind donations made online, alongside all the other donations made in person in the shop and through other fundraising initiatives we have now passed over £800 in our fundraising effort. An extra £200 has been covered by York Golf Range and the defibrillator has been purchased and is now available in the entrance foyer at York Golf Range. We will continue fundraising to cover the ongoing costs of replacing pads when they go out of date and replacing the battery. We will be arranging training shortly.
