Bracknell BID have now funded and organised an additional defibrillator which has been installed outside Southern Ductwork, on Downmill Road within the Western business area of Bracknell. This is the seventh defibrillator to be installed, funded by the BID and London Hearts.
Bracknell BID is aiming to make the business community a safer place in line with objectives, by hosting regular Basic Life Support Awareness Training Courses for workers in the area, as well as funding and installing publicly accessible defibrillators within the area alongside navigation signage to raise awareness of the locations.

The defibrillators are housed in a locked cabinet which can be accessed with a code that can be retrieved by calling 999 in an emergency. The defibrillators are fully automatic and user friendly, they can be used for adults and children by simply changing settings.
