Defibrillator
Our club defibrillator has now been relocated to outside the doors of the clubrooms and is available to the community. As we are all aware, access to a defibrillator can save some one’s life.
Our club is compiling a list of qualified individuals who are competent in using a defibrillator. You never know that perhaps your own life or the life of your son/daughter/ mother / father/ brother/sister/granny or grandad may be saved some day by someone on this list. Please contact Deirdre on 086 17 03 332 if you wish to place your name on the list or private message me on FB.
