Saving Lives Together installed the defib machine in the phone box in the Square in 2017 and proivde16 others  in the area.

If someone is in cardiac arrest - i.e. unconscious and not breathing -  you call an ambulance and they will tell you where the nearest Defib machine is and give out a code.

Saving Lives Together was set up by Aisa Fraser after close friends died in cardiac arrest. She wants to see survival rates increased by a better community response when it happens, with training about CPR. 

Scandinavia for instance trains CPR as part of driving tests. Aisa says one aim is to de-medicalise the terms and emphasise action for the public to take.

They have held training sessions at Petersfield Football Club and the WI and ask organisations to take up their offer of free training.

Refurbishing the phone box in the square brought lots of attention and people asking about using the machine.

Mike Waddington spoke to Alisa Fraser and Anna Howard.
