Introducing Heartstart Kempsey

We’re launching Heartstart Kempsey, a community resuscitation scheme that will serve Kempsey, Severn Stoke, and Croome D’Abitot. The goal? To dramatically improve survival rates from cardiac arrest by offering free CPR training and increasing the number of public access defibrillators across our parishes.

In a cardiac emergency, every second counts. Immediate CPR and defibrillation can mean the difference between life and death. That’s why we need you. To make Heartstart Kempsey a reality, we’re looking for at least six volunteers to become trainers. No medical or teaching experience is required—just a willingness to learn and help. All volunteers will complete a short ‘train the trainer’ course, equipping them to pass on life-saving skills to others.
