Defibrillator Training

post

Belmont FC have recently been successful in receiving a grant to assist with the purchase of a defibrillator.

Training in the use of the defibrillator will take place at the clubhouse on MAY 16th at 5.30pm until 6.30pm.

All parents are encouraged to attend.

We hope that we will never have to use this device but in the event that it is required the more people that are able to operate it the more chance we have of effectively using this life saving device.

These devices are very automated with step by step by step instructions.
