CARDIAC ARREST HAS NO BOUNDARIES
Defibrillators Placed
People CPR Trained
Hearts Screened
At least 12 seemingly healthy young people die every week in the UK from heart conditions they didn’t even know they had. Our mission is simple; to reduce this number so that no family loses a loved one to a heart condition that could have been detected and managed
Accessibility to a defibrillator is key to saving a life. Each minute that is wasted reduces the chances of saving that life by 10%. Therefore, it is our mission to ensure that nobody is further than 100 metres away from a fully working publicly accessible defibrillator in Wales.
In order to fulfil this mission, we need your support to place more of these lifesaving devices into Welsh communities.
Calon Hearts, through its charitable heart screening programme, has already established the benefit of screening, having identified many people with life-changing and life-limiting cardiac conditions. As part of a strategic reorganisation, Calon Screening is going to continue this important work to save lives in Wales.

Book NowSudden Cardiac Death in the young is an under-recognised health problem and tragedy in the UK. It is estimated that at least 12 deaths per week are a result of SCD in the young. Furthermore, a significant proportion of these deaths are preventable by simple screening with an ECG and echocardiogram.
