                              (After dropping the children at school)

Where:     Victoria Rooms (opposite the church)

What:       Defibrillator Training Course

Why:         It is estimated that there are up to 175,000 heart attacks in

                                    the UK each year, that's one every three minutes.  Eleven children a week have a cardiac arrest.  The Baschurch                                 defibrillators have already been used several times and have saved lives.  Now Ruyton XI Towns can do the same!

Avril Sanders Royle, local chiropractor, is working with the school to organise training for local people.  She says, "We need to have a list of people who are available at some times - maybe as little as just one half day or an evening a week when they can be called in the event of a cardiac arrest.  With the technology available a call will automatically go to the people all the trained people so that one of them to get to school and take the defibrillator to the casualty.  The equipment is really easy to use and requires the volunteers to attend a short course to learn how to use it.  We need ALL the people who are close by to learn how to use the defib and help reduce the country's leading cause of death.  The Parish Council have already provided training for 17 people."
