Help us save lives and buy a defibrillator!
You can make a difference and help save lives by donating today to Collyhurst and Moston Boxing club.
Shockingly, 12 people under the age of 35 die each week from sudden cardiac arrest. This is why we are in desperate need for a defibrillator in our gym as both adults and children participate in exercise daily.
You may or may not be aware that contact sports increase the chances of cardiac arrest. Whether it is football, boxing or rugby, a story can be told about every sport where a person has unnecessarily died of cardiac arrest as a defibrillator was not close to hand. Having our own on our premises could avoid this and save someone’s life.
When a defibrillator is used correctly combined with good CPR, the odds of someone's survival can jump from around 6% to 74% – an incredible result. For every minute's delay in deploying the defibrillator the odds reduce by about 10%. It is vital to act fast!
In order to raise money for such an important cause, many of our Collyhurst and Moston Team are climbing Snowden on 19th September and running Manchester’s half marathon on 10th October.
To help us achieve our goal we would be grateful for any donations received , no matter how small!
Thank you
The Collyhurst and Moston Team
