To enhance the safety of local people, David Wilson Homes East Midlands has
installed defibrillators across its communities in the region.

Placed on the outside of the homebuilder’s marketing suites for members of the
public to access in an emergency, the defibrillators have provided another local
option for anyone rushing to the aid of someone suffering a cardiac arrest.
One of the developments with a new defibrillator installed is Pastures Place in Corby
Glen.
With over 30,000 out-of-hospital cardiac arrests every year in the UK, defibrillators
are vital in preventing fatalities. The Circuit, a national defibrillator network, was
therefore established as registered defibrillators are essential when treating a
cardiac arrest, especially for first aiders and paramedics.
John Reddington, Managing Director at David Wilson Homes East Midlands, said:
“Defibrillators are such important assets for local communities, and we’re pleased to
contribute to Corby Glen’s access to life-saving equipment.
“In crucial minutes during a cardiac arrest, it’s vital that a defibrillator can be
accessed quickly, and we are delighted to have installed the equipment across our
sites in the region to ensure that it’s ready for use, if needed.”
Community Public Access Defibrillators (cPADS) save lives and, in the event of an
emergency, anyone coming to the aid of someone in cardiac arrest is advised to call
the emergency services who can provide the code to access a defibrillator. The
responder is then able to advise on the steps to take until an ambulance arrives.
