New Device goes to incident in first 4 days.

The new device in the telephone box at Mead Road in Corfe had only gone into service 4 days ago when it was called to an incident.

This device has been provided by the Community Heartbeat Scheme , Corfe Castle are the latest area to come under the umbrella organisation of the Swanage Community Defibrillator Partnership.

We will be working and supporting the village in providing further devices for Corfe and Kingston very soon.

More details on the project soon especially as the phone box gets an over haul.

Help us to keep the devices working

 

 

 

As a chosen charity of the Coop in Swanage , help us maintain our devices and cabinets by using the CO - OP in Swanage.

 

By using the store and purchasing COOP own brands the partnership will receive a percentage which helps us keep our devices available for public use.

 

 

Guardian Team training

To ensure the devices and cabinets are kept rescue ready, the partnership carry out checks every two weeks on the equipment.

Having 18 devices in the community means a team of volunteers being available to carry out those checks.

This evenings the partnership carried out a training session for the "Guardians" and then had a team photo. The training included device and cabinet awareness as well as the audit process to record the checks.

We were really pleased that our "overseas" coordinator , Kyle joined us on a holiday from Australia !
Kyle was a founder member of the partnership before moving last year.
