The community defibrillator has now been installed in the phonebox on Forth Coth (outside of the dentist) in Carnon Downs.
The defibrillator is portable and can be used by anyone, it will not allow a shock to be delivered if a persons heart is not in the correct rhythm for shocking so please do not be afraid to use it in an emergency.
Huge thanks to Carnon Downs Film Club, Truro Lions Club, Sunbeams Playgroup and the British Heart Foundation for their contributions towards the defibrillator and cabinet.
We hope to hold a 'grand opening' soon!
