Community Public Access Defibrillators

Histon and Impington now have two operational community access defibrillators.

The first was installed at the Recreation Ground in June of last year and was totally funded by Friends of Histon & Impington Recreation.

Following the fundraising concert organised by Neil Davies in February the second defibrillator unit was purchased and is now fully operational on the front external wall at St Andrews Centre in Histon High Street.

There will be a Community Defibrillator training session at St Andrews Centre on Tuesday 23 June at 7pm on the use of defibrillators and how the equipment works helping to save precious minutes in the treatment of cardiac arrest. The training is open to all and please do attend. For further info contact Neil Davies C 232514 or email neilsdavies12@gmail.com

The community defibrillator unit contains an automated external defibrillator (AED and is vandal proof with a keypad. When 999 is dialled the ambulance service operator will provide a code to the caller to access the unit and the AED is available for immediate use.

Remaining funds raised after the defibrillator unit purchase are being given to the Histon & Impington Feast.
