We need your help to get a new defibrillator!💚

SJA Cumbria West and Central is raising £1,000 to purchase a new defibrillator so our volunteers can continue providing lifesaving care at community events across our area.
A defibrillator can make the difference between life and death, and every donation—no matter the size—helps us get one step closer to our goal.
If you're able to support us, please donate using the link below. If you can't donate today, we'd really appreciate it if you could share this post to help us reach more people.
Thank you for helping us keep our community safer. ❤️

Do you know the difference between a hypo and a hyper?

Knowing the signs of low and high blood sugar can help you respond quickly in an emergency.

Ever wondered what to do when someone has a seizure?
We often get asked…”What should I do when someone is having a seizure “. Follow these steps and remember to stay calm, cushion the patient with something soft, and call for medical assistance if necessary.

Witnessing someone having a seizure for the first time can be scary - but you can help keep them safe.

If you have any questions let us know in the comments or direct message us.
