Raise funds for a defibrillator.

In the UK there are more than 30,000 out-of-hospital cardiac arrests a year where emergency medical services attempt to resuscitate the victim. However, the survival rate is low – only one in 10 people that have a cardiac arrest outside of a hospital survive. However, if defibrillation is used within three to five minutes it can produce survival rates as high as 50%–70%.

We believe that everybody should be within reach of equipment that can potentially save a life. We are fundraising to fit a defibrillator to an external wall of AK Active so that the local community can access it in an emergency.
