📣 Defibrillators in Sandbach ❤

There are several defibrillators located in and around Sandbach. These are devices that give a jolt of energy to the heart and can help to get it beating again when someone is in cardiac arrest and their heart has stopped.

Defibrillators can be used in an emergency without training, as the device will give clear step-by-step instructions once activated. Always call 999 for advice before using a defibrillator - sometimes you will need to be given a code given by the Operator.

For a list of defibrillators in Sandbach, visit the British Heart Foundation to access the Defib Finder website:

Did you know your health is influenced by more than just medicine? 💬

Social prescribing is a simple idea with a big impact—it connects people to local support like community groups, activities or practical services that can boost wellbeing. From tackling loneliness to improving physical health, it looks at the bigger picture of what helps us feel well.

Because sometimes, the best support doesn’t come in a prescription 💚
