AEDdonate have adopted a telephone box in Market Square, Stafford and are looking for sponsorship to redevelop it into a safe place to house an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) available to the community 24/7.
30,000 people die each year from out of hospital Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA), 620 of these are people under the age of 35 and 270 of these deaths happen to children within schools. If defibrillation takes place within the first three minutes of a SCA, the patient’s chances of survival increase by upwards of 80%.
Having the defibrillator in this location means that it can be deployed by the local ambulance trust in a bid to give the patient the all-important shock to the heart prior to the ambulance arrival. The defibrillator is by no means a replacement to the ambulance service, it just allows patient treatment to commence immediately.
Donations, partial or full sponsorship of the new equipment will provide your organisation with prominent promotional space, thanking you for your amazing support.
