The Village has been given a gift of 2 defibrillator machines by the Henfield Heart team.

We plan to have one attached to the outside of the Village Hall and the other at the Shepherd & Dog. We are fund raising to pay towards the containers they are kept in. I am contributing in memory of Lucie. We are waiting to hear if the Social Fund will also make a donation.

In the meantime Dave Fletcher paramedic is going to do training sessions on:-

Sat 5th January at 11am.
Sat 12th January at 9.30am.
Sat 19th January 9.30 am.

All ages welcome, you never know when or where you will need this skill. It is far simpler these days, & the machines tell you clearly what to do. I had to perform Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation on Lucie, I was relieved I’d just been updated, but it was frightening and lonely. Hence I feel strongly about as many people being trained as possible.
