TESTIMONIALS

 * The Gaddesby CPAD fundraising team was keen to provide the village with a
   CPAD scheme that was fit for purpose, easy to run with equipment was properly
   maintained and serviced for its whole lifetime.
   
   After careful research and consideration, we chose to work with the CHT.
   
   This was an excellent decision as they provided first class support,
   information and advice at every stage of the process and made it very easy. 
   They do not simply provide 'off-the-shelf' solutions.  They listen, consider
   the requirements of the particular project and devise the optimal solution.
   
   We would recommend any community looking to install a CPAD to talk to the
   team at CHT.

 * Once Hawstead Parish Council had made the decision to install a defibrillator
   at the village hall, we spent some time researching defibrillators and
   defibrillator providers.  The Community Heartbeat Trust was by far and away
   the best we found.  They have been outstanding in respect of the advice and
   guidance they gave us and their on-going support is invaluable.

 * Martin J Render and the CHT have been extremely helpful and professional in
   dealing with getting us all the equipment we needed to set up our village's
   AED. Not only that, but the support given is to a really high standard, they
   are selfless people who are a phone call away and will do whatever they can
   to help you. Last night, 31st March 2016 we had our seminar and the way in
   which it was delivered was amazing, suiting everyone's ability and making
   everyone feel at ease when we might need to use the defibrillator. I would
   recommend Community Hearbeat Trust to anyone who wanted or needed to get a
   AED.
   
   Ollie Copsey - Dane End

 * “There are lots of things to consider when installing a community
   defibrilator, and Community Heartbeat Trust (CHT) made the whole process of
   choosing, installing, managing and learning how to use the machine very easy.
    The CHT team is incredibly knowledgeable and we’d like to say a huge thank
   you to Vickie who helped us set up the scheme and to Martin who delivered the
   training - both were endlessly patient and good humoured!  As a rural
   community we feel much happier knowing that we have a defibrillator on hand.”
      
   
   Letheringham Parish Council

 * We had no idea where to start when a few members of our Woman’s Institute
   decided that we wanted to install a community defibrillator in our Somerset
   village.
   
   At our monthly meeting the local fire brigade demonstrated CPR and the use of
   a Defib.  We were so impressed at the statistics of Defib life saving and the
   importance of CPR that we wanted to waste no time in raising CPR awareness
   and installation of a Defib.
   
   Thank goodness for The Community Heartbeat Trust!  They handheld us through
   the mine field of the criteria that we required such as working with the
   Ambulance service, training awareness, legalities,  Defib cabinet and most
   importantly the Defib that would be the most appropriate for our community.
   
   The after care ( and you will need it!) offered by CHT is so supportive.  A
   defibrillator requires regular checks and maintenance even if it hasn’t been
   used.  
   
   One of our defibs  has already saved a life.  We now have three CHT defibs
   throughout our parish.  We are supported all the way from installation to
   aftercare and maintenance with CHT.
   
   Because of CHT’s support our community is rescue ready.

 * On behalf of the people of Empingham my heartfelt thanks go to Martin and the
   Community Heartbeat Trust, and to you Juliet and the Karen Ball Trust Fund,
   both of whom have made this possible in such a highly professional,
   reassuring way.  I knew from the outset we were in the safest of hands and
   believe that this collaboration is a marriage made in heaven. I am confident
   in your full support going forwards and believe you to be the very best.
   Thank you.

 * I just wanted to let you know how overwhelmed and thankful I am for all your
   support over the last week in getting our defibrillator project off the
   ground.
   
   We now have the means to get our K6 fit and ready for purpose, we have a
   donation website page and all the fundraising gear and of course all the
   information that you have all provided.
   
   Once again a big thank you to you all and we will keep you posted on progress
   and renovation.
   
   Kind regards
   
   Sue

 * I first saw the Community Heartbeat Trust logo when I was on holiday in
   Lynmouth. I had never seen a community defibrillator so took a picture of the
   bright yellow box as we had had discussions in our village about trying to
   have a defibrillator accessible in the village for some time.
   
   When I got home the photo I had taken spurred me on to try to get one for our
   village so the first people I contacted were CHT. From the moment I first
   sent an email I had and still have an amazing service from them. I did look
   into gaining support from other organisations but none of them gave the
   intensive support and guidance that we needed. We had no clue about where to
   start and CHT helped us all the way. They gave us guidance on fundraising and
   once we had the money they not only sorted out the delivery of all that we
   needed but lent us a dummy one so we could show villagers what was coming and
   as part of the package gave us a brilliant training session where as many
   people from the village could attend.
   
   One year on I am still gaining support from CHT and they are as responsive as
   ever. We could never have done what we did without the support, expert advice
   and practical problem solving that they gave us and we will never lose touch!

 * ‘ I was so delighted to find the Community Heartbeat Trust . It is an
   absolutely fantastic resource in every imaginable regard for people looking
   to set up and run a public defibrillator in their community .  When I began
   to research the possibility of putting a PAD in our village telephone box it
   soon became apparent that choosing the best defibrillator & ensuring that
    local people could obtain and use it quickly and effectively ( in a very
   short time window & in  in a rural area ) raised many  complex questions .
   
   The Community Heartbeat Trust answered all such questions.   Drawing on an
   extraordinary  wealth of  knowledge & practical experience  to provide a
   complete care package in which they have thought through and ironed out every
   conceivable obstacle which might impede effective use of a defibrillator by
   lay people  in the real emergency situation .
   
   They also represent  incredible value for money &  following their advice
   would ensure the very best governance for the care & upkeep of the
   defibrillator after installation in accordance with the current legal
   guidelines .’

 * 2015 was our big year to raise the funds to set up a community defibrillator
   for the village of Thorney. We are so pleased
   that we chose the Community Heartbeat Trust to support us through this
   journey. Any questions or support we needed the
   team were always so willing to help and nothing was too much trouble. When
   Martin came to deliver the information
   evening the 50 + community members all commented on how easy to listen to he
   was and how well he got the key facts
   across in a way everyone could understand. We're now ready to do it all again
   in 2016!

 * Kinoulton Village Hall Committee are extremely pleased with the assistance
   and support given by the Community
   HeartBeat Trust (CHT). From the first informative talk, to the awareness
   session for the local community, CHT have
   advised and supported us. We chose the ‘Managed Solutions’ package which
   includes training, insurance, support,
   replenishing of pads, counselling and many other useful extras, this has
   given us peace of mind that all is covered. The
   fund raising turned out to be a real community effort with much fun being
   had, surprisingly we raised the required amount in
   a relatively short time; people felt it win win scenario. In today’s world it
   would be remise not to install a Defibrillator in a
   building for community use.

 * I am very grateful to CHT for the help they give me with our community
   defibrillator project. Martin and all the staff helped
   me every step of the way and really put themselves out to get the
   defibrillator and cabinet ordered and delivered in time to
   have a ‘grand opening’ to coincide with switching on the Christmas lights.
   Thank you team, I could not have done it without
   you.

 * Many thanks for our Cardiac Arrest Seminar held last night in Colscott.  We
   were not only really pleased with the attendance of our neighbours in our
   tiny hamlet, but Jon’s friendly delivery and no nonsense approach was really
   appreciated.  It certainly made clear and answered the basic queries many of
   us had and was very reassuring. 
   
   It was also a very good opportunity for a small celebration and a few people
   had to be seen safely back to their garden gates after we finally finished! 
   
   Thanks again for all the help and support from CHT in helping us make a great
   idea a reality!

 * The team at Community Heartbeat Trust made the process of installing and
   maintaining the defibrillator at Great Waldingfield Village Hall very
   simple.  They are always available to answer any question that you may have. 
   Now purchasing another defibrillator from CHT.

DISCLAIMER

Please make sure you have read and understood this disclaimer - It will be
assumed that you have read prior to CHT receiving any request. CHT are not
responsible for your fund raising, nor your cPAD operations, but may assist in
both. CHTs only aim is to support the installation of a cPAD scheme in the most
cost effective way possible adhering to Best Practice, and help save lives in
your community. This website, and any downloaded information, is for information
only on how to go about obtaining and installing a cPAD, and other relevant
information. All copyrights and trademarks are recognised. All support for the
cPAD will be undertaken by the village committee responsible and via standard
manufacturers warranties. Any training organisation will only be responsible for
the initial awareness training and not for the functioning or maintenance of the
AED. Please do not send any monies to CHT until you have registered your scheme
with us, and have agreement from the local ambulance service for the
establishment of a cPAD scheme. All schemes must be registered with the local
ambulance service (CHT will also undertake this or you can do via this site, but
this does not remove responsibility for you to notify the local ambulance
service of your AED location). 999/112 (ambulance) must always be called prior
to using a cPAD equipment. VAT may be applicable if your organisation is not an
eligible body as defined by HMRC. All current or historical claims for VAT will
be met by the local community. All schemes will be asked to sign an agreement
taking responsibility for their own fund raising and donations to CHT, and then
the operation and maintenance of the cPAD equipment. All CHT provided schemes
will need to manage their maintenance through the WebNoS online system as a
condition of CHT support. It is your responsibility to maintain the equipment in
working order and to make sure the local ambulance service is aware of this.
WebNoS makes this possible and also acts as an audit trail for management of the
equipment. Sites provided by CHT and not using WebNoS may be disengaged from the
ambulance service CAD systems. Any web site showing defibrillator locations is
for information only, and should not be used in preference to dialling 999. CHT
works in close cooperation with the UK ambulance services. Always dial 999 in an
emergency
