Weʼre raising £4,000 to install a solar-powered defibrillator outside the Fika Rivington Cafe at Rivington Pike. Any extra money will be donated to NWAS

Don't have time to donate right now?

Story

On Saturday 11th May, Claire, Shelley and I decided to enjoy the sunshine and go for a walk up Rivington Pike. Whilst out walking a young man became unwell and collapsed. He was with his wife and daughter. An ambulance was called whilst members of the public helped and administered CPR. We stayed with his wife and daughter to offer support as best we could. The man was treated by the air ambulance crew when they arrived, but he sadly passed away after repeated attempts to try and save his life, he was only 45. Had there been a defibrillator close by, his life may well have been saved. We hope to raise enough money for a solar-powered defibrillator to be installed outside the Fika Rivington Cafe which is located near the bottom of the steps leading up to the Pike. The defibrillator will be registered with the ambulance service. Please donate if you can, even the smallest amount would be appreciated. Thank you

    Thank you for all the kind donations received. The quote for the defibrillator cabinet is now ready. I am hopeful that Bolton Mountain Rescue are ordering this next week, as they are a charity they are Vat exempt, so we benefit from a reduction in the amount of money needed to pay for the cabinet. The remaining money will then be shared between Bolton Mountain Rescue, , NWAS and the Air Ambulance. I will update you when I have a date for completion. Thank you again for making this happen.
