In 2015/16 Cllr Rob Skoulding adopted Have A Heart as his chosen charity with the aim of providing defibrillators throughout the Town.
Cllr Skoulding said: “My dad died of a heart attack. If this equipment had been around it might have given him a chance. I would like to give families a chance to keep their loved ones.”
He said: “It is a simple piece of equipment that can save a life if you can reach one quickly. People stand a chance if they can get help from a defib within five minutes which is why I want to ensure there is one within four minutes of wherever people are in the town.”
Cllr Skoulding is donating his allowance as a Fenland district councillor to the cause and hopes that others will get behind the campaign. So far the response has been fantastic with donations from individuals, charities and fund raising activities including a coffee morning.
Together with his own contributions and proceeds from the Mayors Ball held at the Braza Club on 5th February 2016 this has enabled nine defibrillators to be installed so far with five more to go up very soon and three more planned.
Thanks to all for your support
