Well.... it is nearly the end of 2024, and we have achieved so much in the last year....
š we now have our amazing group of guardians, checking and maintaining our public access defibrillators to ensure they always remain emergency ready!
We have an amazing bunch š
ā¤ļø the one and only, Ian Hooper, became our ambassador
šwe have helped supply another 9 public access defibrillators this year...
* redbricks care home in little bispham
* Direct salon furniture in bispham
* teetime golf in Norbreck
* Waterloo pub in blackpool
* one near kirkham allotments
* our big 50! At wyre Fitness in Hambleton
* lilliput nursery in South Shore
* mad air outdoor air rifle Range in Pilling
* high bank farm at hardhorn Village
As well as helping get private owned ones such as the one at a St Anne's swimming pool.
𩵠we have sponsored the U7s vipers training kit and gave them a portable defibrillator for their matches,training,tournaments, etc
š§” Helen did a sponsored climb up the 'big one' at Blackpool pleasure Beach, and Andy Linger did a sponsored sky dive with his daughter, both raising amazing amounts towards the defibrillator fund.
š we launched our portable defibrillator to hire (for free!!!) WESTY29 for adventurers, walkers, cyclists, campers, climbers, and those who go to remote areas to help in a cardiac arrest to give the casualty the best chance of survival.
This is in memory of Laura West š
š we were also nominated for the EVA awards
𩵠we have held numerous community awareness sessions to teach CPR and how to use a defibrillator, giving hands-on experience to help build confidence to use these life-saving skills when needed.
š we have also held numerous fundraising events to raise needed funds and also raise awareness of the importance of these life-saving units, with help from the defib guys 'defibril8'
š we celebrated our 3 year anniversary of Wyre and Fylde community defibrillators fund, and we will hopefully look forward to many more.
š thank you for all your support, donations, sharing of information and events, and kindness. We really appreciate your support for our mission to help save lives š
All the best for Christmas and 2025 š
