In 2015, Holwell installed a defibrillator in the village, located in the ‘phone box on Main Street.  We need villagers’ help to keep it up and running.

Defibrillators have to be maintained, so we have a service contract with The Community Heartbeat Trust (CHT), the charity that supplied the defibrillator and ran a training session for us on how to use the device.

The annual service contract is currently £126.  If we don’t continue to pay this, eventually the defibrillator battery and pads go out of date and the defibrillator is no longer in service. In past years, villagers have kindly donated cash and the Church, too, has helped out.
