Did you know 💡

There are 3 new public access defibrillators in the village!

Would you be able to apply one effectively and give CPR if the need arose? It only takes a short time to gain good technique, and it could save someone’s life, buying time before more help arrives.

West Linton Community First Responders will be taking part in the Save a Life for Scotland campaign on 1 October. The aim is to train as many people as possible in CPR, using a Youtube video created for this date, streaming through the day. The local group invite people to the Old Church Hall for the 2pm and 7pm sessions – but please arrive 10 minutes early for the set-up.

AND……. you could help create a new Guinness World record just by being there to learn CPR!
