🚨 COMMUNITY ANNOUNCEMENT: NEW 24/7 LIFE-SAVING AED 🚨
We are thrilled to share that a new Automated External Defibrillator (AED) is now fully installed and ready for the community!
📍 Location: The unit is located outside the main door of Autotec Reception.
Because it is installed externally, it is accessible to the community 24/7. Crucially, it is also easily accessible for anyone using the busy cycle path or the kids play park nearby. In an emergency, every second counts, and having this equipment centrally located could save a life.
This is a vital safety hub for all local businesses, and crucially, provides round-the-clock protection for everyone.

🙌 Going Above and Beyond
A project like this takes more than just funding; it takes people willing to step up. We have a few massive "thank yous" for the heavy lifting:
• Robert McCafferty: A huge thank you for coming to me with this great idea in the first place. This wouldn't have started without your vision!
• Robert at Autotec: For graciously letting us install the unit at your premises. Having such a central, accessible host site is a game-changer for community safety.
• Craig from CB Electrical: For generously giving up your time and expertise to install the cabinet.
• Phill from The Sign Factory: For your hard work designing and making all the signage. Keep an eye out for these around the local area so everyone knows where to find help fast!
Graham from Pristine Machine: The driving force! Graham did all the homework and went door-to-door to get our local businesses on board. This wouldn't exist without his hard work.
Let’s hope we never have to use it, but we are much safer knowing it’s there! ⚡️❤️
