Heartbeat Haddenham

'Heartbeat Haddenham' was established under the auspices of the Parish Council to raise money to purchase and install publicly accessible Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) in the village. There are now seven AEDs in the village that are ready for emergency use by the general public and available 24/7 -- see map in "Emergency Defibrillators" item at bottom of the Homepage of this website. They are located at:
* Railway Station, Thame Road
* Catholic Church, at junction of Crabtree Road with The Croft and Stockwell
* St Mary's Centre, Church End
* Abbeyfield Care Home, 106 Churchway
* Sports & Social Club, Woodways
* Co-op Store, Tibbs Road
* Community Library
All are easy to find in their green/yellow cabinets on an outside wall, and the keycode to open the cabinet will be given by the 999 operator. Full voice instructions are given when you switch on the defibrillator.
In due course, it is hoped to install a further AED on the Stanbridge Road (Dandara) development.
