BHF Free Community Defibrillator Programme
The British Heart Foundation offers free defibrillators to eligible non-profit community-focused groups across the UK. The programme aims to increase public access to defibrillators in areas with fewer registered devices and higher risk of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Each award package includes a defibrillator with pads and accessories, a non-lockable cabinet for 24/7 public access, replacement pads and batteries, and resources for RevivR online CPR training. Applications are reviewed monthly against criteria prioritizing communities that need them most. Recipients must install the defibrillator within 4 weeks, register it on The Circuit national defibrillator network, and commit to learning and teaching CPR in their community. The defibrillator must be accessible 24/7 in a non-lockable cabinet on an external wall with constant electricity supply, located at least 200 metres from the nearest public access defibrillator. This initiative is made possible through partnerships with Royal Mail, AJ Bell Futures Foundation, and Sky Bet.
