NOTA and Simplicity Funerals partner to map Camden Haven defibs

SIMPLICITY Funerals and News Of The Area have partnered to produce a comprehensive list of Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) across the Camden Haven region.

“In an emergency, every second counts and knowing where your nearest defibrillator is located could save a life,” said Chan Ansell, Client Account Manager at News Of The Area.

The list is designed to be practical – cut it out, keep it handy, and share it with your family, friends, and workplace.

“The idea came from a shared concern,” Chan said.

“We discovered that there’s no easy, centralised, or publicly accessible way to find all available defibs in our area.

“While there are apps and registration platforms, not all defibrillators are required to be registered, and as a result, many are missing from public directories.

“We want to change that.”

If you are aware of a local defibrillator that isn’t listed, please email chan@newsofthearea.com.au.

“Together, we can help ensure our community is better prepared – because when the unexpected happens, knowing where help is can make all the difference,” Chan said.
