Question
Will the Minister make a statement on the provision of defibrillators in sports grounds and community centres in Wales?
Answer
Answered by Minister for Health and Social Services
We have provided funding to the Save a Life Cymru campaign, which is working with organisations including sports clubs and facilities providers across Wales to raise awareness of the importance of CPR training and the use of defibrillators through the ‘Touch Someone’s Life’ campaign. The number of defibrillators in communities and buildings across Wales is increasing constantly and we would encourage people to register them with the ambulance service.
