Defibrillator Project
This community takes its health seriously. As such we are working hard to fundraise for a Defibrillator to ensure that everyone: resident, visitor & worker has the opportunity to live the longest life possible. Our local pub the lovely Queen’s Head has agreed to position the equipment in a prominent place on its property.
The project will cost around £1500 and has the honour of being our very first project in the pipeline to completion. We are around a third of the way towards the target at the moment but are redoubling efforts to ensure that the village doesn’t go through another year without this equipment. Fortunately for us, in the meantime, we have a manual defibrillator in the shape of an ex fireman who, when a neighbour collapsed and effectively died in his garden, jumped into action and administered CPR until the paramedics arrived. That neighbour still gardens thanks to this stalwart effort but we cannot rely on our local hero to always be on call. Thank you anyway, you know who you are….
Once we have got the equipment in place – hooray – we will be making sure that everyone including villagers, pub staff, dog walkers and local farmers are all trained in its correct use.
A dedicated team of fundraisers has been formed to spearhead Defibrillator fundraising so watch this space, just about anything could happen to get us across the line. If you feel that you can help us in any way to raise the money or advise on the right equipment, please get in touch.
Prosiect Diffibriliwr
Mae’r gymuned hon yn cymryd ei iechyd o ddifrif. O’r herwydd, rydym yn gweithio’n galed i godi arian ar gyfer Diffibriliwr er mwyn sicrhau bod pawb: preswylwyr, ymwelwyr a gweithwyr yn cael y cyfle i fyw y bywyd hiraf posibl. Yn ein tafarn leol mae’r Queen’s Head hyfryd wedi cytuno i osod yr offer mewn lle amlwg ar ei heiddo.
Bydd y prosiect yn costio tua £ 1500 ac mae’n anrhydedd mai ein prosiect cyntaf cyntaf ar y gweill yw ei gwblhau. Rydyn ni tua thraean o’r ffordd tuag at y targed ar hyn o bryd ond maent yn dyblu ymdrechion i sicrhau na fydd y pentref yn mynd trwy flwyddyn arall heb yr offer hwn. Yn ffodus i ni, yn y cyfamser, mae gennym ddiffibriliwr llaw yn siâp dyn tân cyn, a phan fu cymydog yn cwympo ac wedi marw yn effeithiol yn ei ardd, neidiodd i weithredu a gweinyddodd CPR nes i’r parafeddygon gyrraedd. Mae’r cymydog yn dal i arddio ddiolch i’r ymdrech fawr hon, ond ni allwn ddibynnu ar ein harwr lleol i fod ar alwad bob amser. Diolch, beth bynnag, chi’n gwybod pwy ydych chi ….
Unwaith y cawn yr offer ar waith – mi fyddwn ni’n sicrhau bod pawb sy’n cynnwys pentrefwyr, staff y dafarn, cerddwyr cŵn a ffermwyr lleol i gyd wedi’u hyfforddi i’w ddefnyddio’n gywir.
Mae tîm pwrpasol o godwyr arian wedi cael ei ffurfio i godi arian Diffibrilwyr blaenllaw felly gwyliwch y gofod hwn, gallai rhywbeth a allai ddigwydd i ni fynd ar draws y llinell.
Os ydych chi’n teimlo y gallwch chi ein helpu mewn unrhyw ffordd i godi arian neu roi cyngor ar yr offer cywir, cysylltwch â ni.
