About
We believe that venues should be installed with potentially lifesaving equipment such as defibrillators. When a sudden cardiac arrest occurs, the casualty is usually relying on the ambulance service and first responders, and although they try their best, they can be a fair distance away from the scene.
Charlotte and Craig Saving Hearts Foundation have ensured that every school in their hometown has a defibrillator on site

Donation of a Baby Breathing Monitor
Last week we supported a beautiful baby boy who had had complex heart surgery a few weeks ago & also suffers from sleep apnea. So we wanted to help give his family a little peace of mind. So we decided to donate a Snuza HeroMD Baby Breathing Monitor.
This was delivered to them the very same day we ordered it. We hope this will help in some small way xx
