Campaign To Save Lives!
AEDdonate have teamed up with
Crowdfunder.co.uk and SADS UK to offer fundraising activities to enable
communities to obtain an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) through
Community Heartsafe Projects.
This has been run successfully on a number of projects throughout the UK with
fundraising activities such as school bag packs, car washes, car boot sales and
sponsored sports events etc. The communities have come together to raise enough
funds for the Defibrillator to be placed. AEDdonate coordinated all of this
providing the fundraising packs, contacting local councils, MP's, getting
donations from local businesses and getting involvement from local community
groups to ask for help and support for the project. Most importantly it creates
mass PR and Social Media awareness so that donations can be given on line
through Crowdfunder.
Schools, sports centres, social clubs, pubs, restaurants,
villages, high streets basically anywhere that the public use as they should
have access to an AED.
Managing Director, Jamie Richards said:- "I am so pleased that we can now
offer this throughout the UK due to our unique relationship with SADS UK and
Crowdfunder.co.uk. 100,000 people die each year from Sudden Cardiac Arrest, 90%
of those patients could of have been saved if they had quick access to an AED.
Being a Community First Responder outside of work I see what devastation Cardiac
Arrest causes unfortunately on a too frequent basis"
We are now able to accept enquiries for new community projects across the UK.
