LLOYDS Banking Group Operations in Haywards Heath has launched the bank’s first community defibrillator in the town.
The team at Lloyds worked with the South East Coast Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust to provide this vital piece of life-saving equipment.
Haywards Heath Mayor James Knight unveiled the machine and was joined by Nick Allen, retail customer delivery director for Lloyds Bank at a ceremony at the banking firm’s Perrymount Road site.
Sandra Holman, senior manager for the Lloyds team, said: “I am so proud of my team for coming up with the concept and making it happen, helping to really put Lloyds Banking Group in the heart of the community.”
A defibrillator delivers an immediate high-energy dose of electric current to the heart, often called a countershock.
