I absolutely agree. That is a wonderful idea to make people aware, early on, about health intervention and what can be done through training.

I thank my hon. Friend and Hampshire neighbour for giving way and I pay tribute to her for securing the debate. Will she join me in paying tribute to organisations such as my local parish council, which has gone out of its way to put its funds towards making defibrillators available not only in the local village hall but in the local village pub, too?

Absolutely, and I thank my right hon. Friend. There is always a good reason to go the pub and that sounds like an excellent one.
