The Department of Health and Social Care is currently running a £1 million match funded Community Automated External Defibrillators Fund, aimed at increasing the number of Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) in public places where they are most needed and to help save lives. Organisations must provide matchfunding of £750 towards an AED device which needs to be accessible to the public, and the Dept will make a contribution of at least £750 towards the device, on a first come, first served basis. Full details plus the online application from can be found on the government website.
