Question
Will the Minister make a statement on the provision of defibrillators in sports grounds in the Monmouth constituency?
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 and the third sector across Wales to increase the number of defibrillators as well as raising 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 is constantly increasing and we would encourage people to register them with the ambulance service.
