East Grinstead Defibrillators Society Survival can be shocking

Every minute counts.
Make sure one is close by.

We install, maintain and map public defibrillators across East Grinstead, and teach the hands-only CPR that gives someone a real chance when their heart stops.

What we do

The Society has two aims: keep defibrillators working and ready across the town, and help more people know what to do in the first few minutes.

⚡

Install and maintain

Devices are placed where people gather, then checked, with pads and batteries replaced before they expire.

📍

Map every device

A live map shows where each defibrillator is, how to get into its cabinet, and when it was last checked.

🫀

Teach CPR

Free and low-cost sessions for schools, clubs, workplaces and families, so people feel ready to act.

Find a defibrillator

Host a defibrillator

We do the work. You provide a wall, a sign and a bit of goodwill.

  1. We install the device and cabinet at no cost to you.
  2. We check it, replace pads and batteries, and handle the paperwork.
  3. You keep the cabinet accessible and tell us if anything looks wrong.
  4. You get a plaque, a listing on the map and a free CPR session for your team.

If someone collapses, act now

Hands-only CPR keeps blood moving to the brain until help arrives. You don't need medical training to start.

Book a free session

  1. Check they are unresponsive and not breathing normally.
  2. Call 999 (or 112) and ask for an ambulance.
  3. Push hard and fast in the centre of the chest, at 100 to 120 compressions a minute.
  4. Use a defibrillator if one is nearby. It will talk you through the rest.
