Oaksey Defibrillator
We are fortunate that the school playground hosts the Village Defibrillator.
In June 2012, one of our parents and then landlord of The Wheatsheaf at Oaksey, was inspired to set up a fundraising event at the pub to raise £1,500 to purchase a community defibrillator. This was quickly achieved and the Parish Council agreed to take up maintenance responsibility.
In the unfortunate circumstances that that the defibrillator needs to be used, it can be accessed by use of a code. This is available from the emergency services, as well as from prominent places in Oaksey, such as the school.
Once accessed, it provides its own clear directions for use.
