The BWVCT is circulating a list of people who are willing to respond to first aid incidents in our village and in some cases be contactable DAY or NIGHT to retrieve the defibrillator. Please make sure you keep the leaflet that has been distributed throughout the village in a prominent position!
Please remember if the incident is serious to call 999 first! In the case of a cardiac arrest/heart attack and you are more than 200 yards from the defibrillator, the 999 centre will NOT direct you there. We urge you to make your own emergency plans with friends, neighbours or one of the contacts from our call-down list who will retrieve it for you if needed. You should not, nor would you want to, leave a loved one if they are suffering a cardiac arrest!
