St Michael’s on Wyre Lodge No 8348 and the St Michael’s Farmers Ball have successfully collaborated to fully fund the purchase of a Defibrillator & Cabinet for St Michael’s on Wyre Village Hall.
The collaboration was facilitated by the Rotary Club of Garstang and Over Wyre and was the 14th Defibrillator and 15th Cabinet installation in the Club’s program of community support.
It is testament to the community spirit, commitment and enthusiasm of all three organisations that the Hall is now a focal medical point adding to the valuable amenity for the village.
A defibrillator is a medical device that sends an electric shock to the heart to fix a dangerous, irregular rhythm and help it beat normally again and has been proven time and again to save lives in an immediate emergency when a journey to a hospital would have taken too long with the most dire outcomes.

This new location certainly makes St Michaels on Wyre a safer place to live and work.
