Bath & North East Somerset Council has been working in partnership with the Community Heartbeat Trust on a programme of installations of defibrillators across the area. As of September 2023, there fifty-five sites.  Funds have been raised within the community and some Elected Members have used their Ward Councillors Initiative funding to invest in the defibrillator programme.

Our installations are located on a variety of buildings: churches; doctors’ surgeries; supermarkets; local convenience stores; public houses and adopted telephone kiosks. See the list of sites below.

Each case has a number pad on it. When the ambulance service receives a 999 call, they are able to identify the nearest device by postcode, give the caller the code and ask the caller to take the device to the patient. The first responder or the paramedics will take over at their arrival.

These machines are made to be used by any member of the community - they talk the user through the defibrillation process. A defibrillator cannot harm anybody. If the patient is not in cardiac arrest, the machine will identify this, and the user will not proceed with defibrillation.

For further information, please contact Martin Fagan at the Community Heartbeat Trust on 0845 86 277 39 or by email to secretary@communityheartbeat.org

You may find locations that do not appear on the database. This will be because these sites are either private or run by other supporting organisations.
