And here it is... **Brierley Hill's first publicly accessible defibrillator!**
Thank you so much to Sally and the Henry Angell-James Memorial Trust for so generously donating this life-saving piece of equipment to our town.
We know that a Cardiac Arrest can happen anytime, to anyone and anywhere – that's why having defibrillators as widely accessible as possible is so important and such a fantastic mission that the HAJMT do so much to contribute to.
Thank you also to James at Brierley Hill Civic for putting the Civic forward as the home for our town's first publicly accessible defibrillator and completing the process to ensure the defib is registered on 'The Circuit' so as anyone who calls 999 can be directed straight to it.
And finally, a big thank you to local electrician Aaron from Approved Electrical Midlands for wiring and fitting the cabinet completely free of charge.
As with all defibrillators, we hope this one won't have to be used.
But please spread the word so everyone in Brierley Hill knows that our town's new defib is here to hand – located just around the corner to the left of the entrance to the Civic, facing the police station entrance.
