Sudden Cardiac Arrest is among the biggest killers of young people in the UK, with 12 people under the age of 35 dying from SCA each week in our country (Cardiac Risk in the Young). With so many healthy young people losing their lives every year, it is only natural that a huge effort is taken to combat this as a nation.

Sadly, we can not yet effectively predict cardiac arrest in many cases, meaning that the best we can do is be prepared to take action when someone has suffered a cardiac arrest. This means having a defibrillator nearby and people who are confident in using one - for children and teenagers, they spend most of their young lives in school, so AEDs in schools just make sense.

defibshop and Imperative Training have been supporting the local community in empowering the younger generation with the skills needed to respond to Sudden Cardiac Arrest.

Teaming up with Irlam and Cadishead Academy, defibshop provided manikins and training defibrillators to the school so that teachers can offer sessions to their students on responding to an emergency, Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) and using an Automated External Defibrillator (AED).
