We are raising funds to install a Defibrillator at the club.
£750 is needed to help with the purchase and yearly running costs.
A cPAD is a defibrillator that is available to members of the public, 24 hours a day, to use in the case of a life threatening emergency.
In the north east, we know that only 8.7% of patients who had resuscitation attempted on them survived to be discharged from hospital. A victim’s chance of survival falls by around 7 to 10 percent with every minute that defibrillation is delayed. When a heart stops beating, oxygen is not being transported to the brain and other vital organs, and within four to five minutes, brain damage will start to occur without intervention
Sudden Cardiac Arrest can occur completely out of the blue and affect anyone.
