External Defibs Available Locally Now!

NOTE: The Register My AED website is an important tool by Ambulance Victoria that allows anyone to see where their closest defibrillator is, as well as the hours it is accessible.

Location 1: Goornong Police Station
The first of our Thales Bendigo funded defibrillator machines has been installed at the Goornong Police Station, replacing the original unit which has been relocated to the swimming pool. Thanks to Thales Bendigo for funding these important community assets.

Location 2: Huntly Newsagency

We are excited to report we now have two of the defib projects we have been working on that have been installed. The first went in at Goornong last week. And the 2nd external defib has recently been installed outside the Huntly Newsagency. A big thanks to the Huntly Hub and Joy Drummond for her inputs/liaison and Jim the newsagent who allowed us to place the defib outside his business.

Location 3: White Hills Laundromat
We are pleased to report that we have now been able to place another defibrillator machine inside the 24/7 White Hills Laundromat.
Thanks to all involved for making this happen.
