You will find the village defibrillator on the side of the village hall near the bench, closest to Merebank road.  Anyone can very easily use this public defibrillator.  No training is expected or needed.  You’ll be helped (it, and the 999 operator, can both talk to you).  It is NOT for ambulance crews - they have their own !! - it is for you, the public, to save a life.  Dial 999 for the entry code to unlock the cover and start using it. 

Outside of an emergency, search "defib trainer" or "AED trainer" in your phone's app store for an app that helps know how to use it.  But don't do that in an actual emergency, call 999 and begin.  

Keep the "keep clear" marked space clear at all times for an ambulance, or a car bringing someone needing the defib, which may be needed there at any time.  Every single second counts in a heart attack, there won't be time to find the owner of a car and wait for them to move it.
