Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Stepping stones nursery is raising money for a defibrillator to be based in our nursery. 

So lets have some fun and raise money for this important equipment that may be need one day in the nursery or local community.

Our first event is a sponsored walk/toddle/bike/scooter (or ride in the pushchair) at ferry meadows on Nov 13th at 10:30. Meet at the centre and maybe have fun in the new park after

Each year, around 30,000 people are struck by SCA (Sudden Cardiac Arrest) outside of a hospital environment. This can occur anywhere - at school, home, work or public places. For each minute a victim doesn’t receive CPR or defibrillation, this reduces their survival rate by 7-10%.

When a defibrillator is used within 3-5 minutes of the cardiac arrest, survival rates increase significantly from 6% to 74%. .Having a defibrillator is that important and we’re here to spread this fundamental message.

What does a defibrillator do? Defibrillators are a device that can re-establish a person’s normal heartbeat during cardiac arrest. A high energy electric shock to their heart is delivered and this is called ‘defibrillation’.

AEDs (automated external defibrillators) are external units that automatically diagnose and treat cardiac arrhythmias through this electric shock and restore a normal rhythm. AEDs can be used by everyone - lay responders or members of the public are all able to use them with little or no training.
