100,000 people a year die from SCA and defibrillation within the first 3 minutes can increase a patient's chances of survival by upwards of 80%. The current ambulance response time for the area around the Centre is running at 7 minutes so it is very easy to see what a difference a defibrillator can make. AEDdonate is a charity that was formed to place public access defibrillators into communities. AEDdonate provide the right support to communities when placing such specialised equipment and to also make sure the relevant links are made with each UK ambulance trust when placing AEDs into communities. This is vital for deployment to a patient that needs the use of a defibrillator.AEDdonate have placed over 800 defibrillators into communities across the UK. All AEDs are registered with UK. Ambulance trusts so they can be deployed to patients when required. Over 20,000 people were trained on basic life support and AED training through community based training sessions by AEDdonate within the year. So far AEDdonate have saved over ten lives with our public access defibrillators and will continue to place AEDs into communities.THINK - If a Cardiac Arrest happened where you are now - where would the nearest AED be?
