Many thanks to everyone that has donated to the defibrillator fund. We have received grants of £600 in total from South Hams and Devon County Councils. Thanks to your gifts the GoFundMe page now has £811 (after their commission) of the original £750 target. So, we have now bought the defibrillator and cabinet and some spare electrode pads and are awaiting delivery. This should be in the Tally Ho porch in the coming month – thanks to Will offering to install and connect up a power supply. We have a surplus income of £210 which will go into a designated Parish Council Defibrillator maintenance fund for future replacement defibrillator pads (£47), and the internal battery (£230) when it needs replacing in five years. If anyone wants to continue to make a donation via the GoFundMe page, then with another £70 the project will be fully financed for 10 years.
