Community Def-fib and box appeal. PR8

Hi, my name is Naomi and I live on Railway Terrace in Birkdale. I was in the right position to help save a life and I would like to invite you to help me save another. I work in a school and on the last day of term my Headteacher suffered a cardiac arrest, his condition only had a 2% survival rate. Luckily the school had a defib.

After this, I bought a defib (£1,300) which I want to make available to the rest of the community.

To make it readily available we need to buy a secure box linked to 999. These boxes and replacement pads will cost £1000.

Time is critical when dealing with heart failure, a defib can make the real difference between life and death. We constantly live with the train barriers and our closest defib is in Shakespear street. Barriers are frustrating in our everyday life, imagine if you needed a defib.

Please help make my defib become a community asset, ready to use if you or your loved ones need help. Please help us reach our goal and give what you can.

Thank you

Naomi
