We would like to encourage clubs to consider the nearest location of a defibrillator in relation to all of your home grounds and the time it would take to get that device to a patient should someone suffer a cardiac arrest. There is only a vital FIVE MINUTE period before permanent or irreversible damage can occur and a portable defibrillator can be the saviour of an otherwise catastrophic situation.

The Club Cricket Chairty provide an offer to clubs which is….

1. A portable defibrillator unit (AED)
2. Training
3. Insurance cover against theft, breakage and vicarious liability
4. Registration with local emergency services
5. Post Traumatic Stress Counselling

Total Cost to a Club in Year 1 is is £351.20 for a portable unit and first year’s maintenance

Cambridgeshire Cricket Ltd are pleased to be able to offer a further reduction in costs to clubs that are primarily affiliated to us. Working in partnership with The Club Cricket Charity, Cambridgeshire Cricket will provide £200 of funding to the first 25 clubs that take up this offer. This means the initial outlay to clubs will only be £151.20

We would like to encourage clubs that are interested in this offer to email Donna.black@club-cricket.co.uk requesting a county application form. Make sure you mention that your club is affiliated to Cambridgeshire Cricket Board in the email
