Supporting Community Access to Defibrillators in Newmains

That the Parliament welcomes the installation of a new public-access defibrillator cabinet on the exterior wall of Robins Bar in Newmains; understands that the defibrillator was secured through the collaborative efforts of local elected members, the wider community, and both the outgoing and incoming Newmains Gala Day Committees, in conjunction with the British Heart Foundation's initiative to expand access to life-saving defibrillators across communities; recognises what it sees as the generosity of Brian Jordan Electrics in carrying out the installation free of charge; commends everyone involved for their commitment to improving community safety and resilience; acknowledges what it considers to be the vital role that publicly accessible defibrillators play in improving survival rates following out-of-hospital cardiac arrest; celebrates the contribution of local businesses, volunteers and community organisations in increasing access to this life-saving equipment and encourages communities across Scotland to support the installation, maintenance and promotion of public-access defibrillators.
