Elton Parish Council would like to invite the residents of Elton to a defibrillator demonstration.
The event will take place on Tuesday 19 April at 7pm in Elton Village Hall.
The Community Heartbeat Trust will be demonstrating the use of Elton’s defibrillator. This will include an explanation of how the equipment works and the benefits to the community in saving precious minutes in the treatment of a sudden cardiac arrest.
The more people who know how to use a portable defibrillator, the more chance there is of saving a life.
