It's a gloomy day in Wellington but we have kicked off with an amazing story. Cardiac arrest survivor Heinrich shared his incredible story which happened at rugby training in rural Taranaki. His teammates saved his life with high-quality CPR and kicking in two locked doors to find the AED in the clubroom bar. Thank you Heinrich for sharing your inspiring story.

All too often a community calls us for a defibrillator after an event. We are so happy to hear about this positive outcome from a Defib in public cabinet saving a surfers life on a Christchurch beach last week.
