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.

Fulking was featured in The Argus last night.
Every Tuesday The Argus runs a feature called “In Your Street”. It’s a look at the history and current set-up of streets and villages in Sussex.
So reporter Ben Leo visited our village last week and met up with some local residents including Jenny Tooley and Bob Rowland.
We reproduce Ben’s feature here with kind permission. Click the thumbnail on the right for the full version.

Mid Sussex Community Safety Partnership gave local people the opportunity to protect their property from opportunist thieves looking to target poorly secured sheds. As the evenings grow longer shed security can be even more of an issue.
With this in mind the Partnership has now purchased additional shed alarms and residents who missed out can now get a discounted alarm. The shed alarms are available at the reduced rate of £7, which is £11 cheaper than the normal retail price of £18 and are available to buy from Town Help Points in Burgess Hill, East Grinstead and Haywards Heath.
Residents are also being encouraged to take a few simple steps that will help to keep their shed safe and secure;
