FREE Defibrillators for Community Spaces
Dear Club Secretary
I’m reaching out to encourage your Crown Green Bowling Club to take advantage of a fantastic opportunity from the British Heart Foundation.
They are offering FREE defibrillators for community spaces – and bowling clubs are perfect locations to benefit from this lifesaving equipment. Sudden cardiac arrest can happen to anyone, at any time, and having a defibrillator nearby could make all the difference.
You can find full details and apply here:
Please consider applying for your club, and share this information with other clubs in your area. Together we can help make Crown Green Bowling a safer, more welcoming community for everyone.
Best wishes,
Jayne McKay
National Development Officer BCGBA
