This information is not collected centrally.


Following our 2015 Budget commitment on defibrillators, we have awarded the British Heart Foundation £1 million to make public access defibrillators and coronary pulmonary resuscitation training more widely available in communities across England.


The provision of defibrillators in Wales is a matter for the Welsh Government.
