Defibrillators

Heart Safe Clubs

Football Development
The FA is launching Phase 3 of its National initiative "Heart Safe Clubs" to provide life-saving defibrillators to all grassroots clubs.

The FA is launching Phase 3 of its national initiative “Heart Safe Clubs” to provide life-saving defibrillators to all grassroots football clubs in England from 1st July 2019.

The scheme was first launched in 2017 and Phases 1 & 2 have proved so successful that the FA is now launching Phase 3 with WEL Medical, its strategic supply partner.  WEL Medical specializes in life-saving devices and is supplying the FA with the iPAD SP1 defibrillator, a nominated device of the British Heart Foundation.

Clubs can now purchase life-saving iPAD SP1 defibrillators for the special price of £695+VAT (usual cost £1325+VAT). The IPAD SP1 is a nominated unit of the British Heart Foundation and is deployed by the NHS Ambulance service. The iPAD SP1 defibrillator is portable, it weighs just 2.4kg (including the battery pack and pads) and comes in a robust, high visibility carry case.

Phase 3 launches on 1st July 2019 and all grassroots clubs in England can apply for a defibrillator via the dedicated website: www.footballdefibs.org. WEL Medical will require the club name, affiliation number, name of County FA, and the name/position of the person ordering the AED.
