I wonder if it would be possible to relocate the defibrillator at Life Leisure

Possible it already has been moved.  A while ago there was a Facebook post where they were looking for a new home for some wooden chairs from the centre.  Doubt that was all that was taken from there once the decision was made to close the centre.

You're right - I was surprised how many there are in local businesses.  Alas, I don't think the one in Life Leisure Marple's much use to anyone right now though  :(

Marple Defibrillator News 16 March 2022

The defibrillator at Marple Cinema was recently deployed for the sixth time since it was installed. The one in the phone box on Lower Fold in Marple Bridge has been deployed three times whilst the one on the side of the Cafe / Warden Office in Compstall has been deployed twice.

Please be aware of where your nearest local Defibrillator is, as it can save lives!

The Marple Bridge Association (MBA) has led the project to improve coverage across our area and there are also 24 hour access defibrillators locally at the Windsor Castle and Northumberland Arms in Marple Bridge, the Hare and Hounds in Mill Brow plus the Police Station in Memorial Park and Marple Fire Station. A new defibrillator has recently been installed on the Pavilion in Brabyns Park and the MBA are currently helping put another 24 hour access one in the grounds of Marple Hall.

If you wish to support this project please donate via the MBA Website.

Community Heartbeat Trust Seminar completed

Last Thursday thirty-five-plus members of the Marple Community attended a Defibrillator and Cardiac Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) seminar given by the Community Heartbeat Trust. This means that more people in Marple Town Centre now know how to use the new defibrillator recently installed on the Regent Cinema. All local shops and offices were invited to send a member of staff to the free seminar organised by local Defib Champion Phil Cooke and Marple Civic Society. The majority of the attendees either work or live just a short distance from the new defibrillator.

This flyer was hand-delivered with an explanation to 20 local shops and businesses closest to the Cinema Defibrillator yesterday afternoon.

It was also delivered to Library staff and more will be delivered in the Town Centre today.

If you run a business in Marple Centre then please consider attending this seminar, or sending one of your staff.

This can also apply to shops and businesses near to the Fire Station Defib or the one on the Police Station in the park.

What John says is absolutely correct, the training is not essential to be able to use them as the defibrillators are so smart nowadays. Still an advantage though, as having done the training one will know what to expect and should therefore have more confidence.

This message is not only going out to people who use this site. It is correct that it would be best for shopkeepers and business owners and other people who are regularly in the town centre to receive the training and this is why a flyer will be dropped through the letter boxes of nearby businesses specifically inviting them to attend and posters will be displayed locally too. If there is a big demand then it may also be possible to arrange further training, this can be decided after the response to this session.
Thanks for info

The really important thing to understand is that actually training is not necessary (though useful) the defib will tell you what to do. Once taken out of box, press the start button and follow the instructions. (Even if trained, in emergency situation panic may set in, so it is all talked through for you) It will not work unless it has worked out it is needed, so no chance of shocking patient unless required.

If you need the defib, just use it trained or not

I think this is such an important issue that people in Marple should be made more aware of this instruction rather than only the people who read this site. I think the people who should be given instruction in how to use the Defibrillator are the shopkeepers and other businesses who are likely to be in Marple for most of each day rather than Joe Bloggs who might be around Marple once or twice  a week, I say this because there are only 50 places available for instruction. Maybe there could be made more instruction dates available to us so that if more than 50 people know how to use it there is more chance of saving somebodies life.
