The sort of good news that for some reason doesn't appear to have been mentioned on the forum, but the SC and FC have worked together to install 2 defibrillators at the Stadium.
Hopefully, these will never be used, but its good to know that the club and SC can work together and have taken steps to hopefully avoid a tradgedy.

Personally, I think it's a welcome jolt to what has been an otherwise quiet summer thus far. |

Will they be free to use or will there be a charge?

joking aside maybe the club should post a link to a video on how to use the particular equipment that has been installed such as this-

Yes they are easy to use. But they still need to train people up to use them. And in the moment when someone realises that someone in front of them is dieing there is a kind of psychological barrier that needs crossing. Someone has to do something to save a life which is quite unlike any other occasion. It can cause paralysis amongst onwatchers. They have made them as easy as possible to use and the club are to be applauded for placing them around the stadium. They do need to train named staff to use them. Just as you have named first-aiders on any match day. I’m sure training will be part of it. Well done the club. UTG! |

The Community Trust staff have been trained to use them, and I would presume that some of them are in the stadium on matchdays, plus of course the St John's Ambulance. The CT staff were also trained in using the bleed kits which were presented to the club - hopefully they will never be needed. |

Looking at how slow we normally start games,maybe the players need zapping around 14.55 every Saturday.

As someone said earlier, they are designed now so that literally anyone can use them. They monitor everything and talk you through how to use them including pictures when you open them. They don't administer a shock unless the machine knows one is needed. You don't need any basic first aid training to use a defib these days. |

Well if we get the planning permission for a new screen then we can show life saving videos. How can the planners refuse that?

It sounds like AI first aid is the way forward. |

The question might be more around knowing WHEN to use them.. presumably if there is no pulse and they are not breathing? I guess someone would need to perform CPR until the kit arrives? |

Having lost a close friend well before his time when a defibrillator may have helped this is welcome news.

Not to mention any police officers who are working the fixture and any emergency services/hospital staff who are at the game as fans. |

I think everyone who has some spare time should make the effort to learn basic emergency/first aid, it’s not a difficult or time consuming course and you may just save someone’s life 👍🏾
