Purchase of a portable defibrillator

Do you want to join me in making a difference? I'm raising money in aid of Friends of Bright Futures School and every donation will help. Thank you in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to me.

More information about Friends of Bright Futures School: Friends of Bright Futures School is the charitable PTA for Bright Futures School for children with autism in Greenfield, Oldham. Our charitable objects are a) To develop effective relationships between the staff, parents and others associated with the school and b) To engage in activities or provide facilities or equipment, which support the school and advance the education and life experiences of the pupils. Our last project raised funds for a sensory room, play area & touchscreen TVs in the new school. We are now looking to purchase a defibrillator. An Automated External Defibrillator (AED) is a portable life saving device that can give a casualty’s heart an electric shock, when it has stopped beating normally in a sudden cardiac arrest.

A defibrillator works by checking the casualty's heart rhythm once the defibrillator pads are placed on their chest and giving them a shock if needed.

Defibrillators can be used on adults or children over one year old.

By using a defibrillator before an ambulance arrives, you can significantly increase someone’s chance of survival.
