Life-Saving Defibrillator Installed in Portslade

The device is available to the public and can be accessed by contacting emergency services. In an emergency, members of the public should call 999, and the operator will provide the access code and instructions.

Norman Mayhew, Managing Director of The Sussex Sign Company, said:

“As a business that has been part of the Sussex community since 1995, we believe supporting our local area goes beyond the services we provide. Having a defibrillator accessible at our premises in Portslade could one day help save a life, and we’re proud to play our part.”

Sudden cardiac arrest can happen without warning, and rapid access to CPR and defibrillation significantly increases survival rates.

The company hopes the device will never need to be used but is pleased to provide an additional layer of safety for the Portslade community.
