Please find below information on a Fund that is open for applications:
Good Morning Cllr,
I hope this email finds you well. I am the Operations Director at London Hearts, a charity dedicated to the procurement and distribution of life-saving defibrillators across the UK for both public and private sectors.
We would like to offer you the opportunity to ensure that your communities have access to a fully functional defibrillator at all times. London Hearts is proud to be the appointed supplier and managing administrator of a defibrillator fund on behalf of the Department of Health and Social Care. This may well fit well in helping to get life saving defibrillators more readily available across your area.
The Department of Health and Social Care is offering a £500,000 Community Automated External Defibrillators (AED) Fund, aimed at increasing the availability of defibrillators in public places where they are most needed. The fund will provide 1,100 new defibrillators and cabinets. To participate, match funding of £750 is required for a defibrillator with an external locked cabinet, or £660 for a defibrillator with an internal cabinet.
Please note, the fund is distributed on a first-come, first-served basis, so early application is encouraged.
- For public access defibrillators, applications can be made at: www.defibgrant.co.uk
- For internal defibrillators, applications can be made via : https://londonhearts.org/apply-for-a-defib/
