James Burrell gives community access to .
Staff from James Burrell Builders Merchants have completed the 11 mile East Durham Coastal Walk and managed to raise £1600 for North East Hearts with Goals. This will fund a community access defibrillator to be placed in a public area in the North East of Yorkshire. The challenge began at Crimdon where the team walked for over four hours along the East Durham coastline to reach Nose’s Point in Seaham. James Burrell decided to support North East Hearts with Goals after several first aiders within the company realised the importance
of community access defibrillators. Over 100,000 people die in the UK every year from sudden cardiac arrest therefore it is important that there are more defibrillators in public places.
Christine Stephenson, co- founder at North East Hearts with Goals, stated “We are incredibly grateful to all of the James Burrell staff and customers for their recent fundraising activities. When a cardiac arrest occurs your chances of survival reduce by 10% every minute without a defibrillator and CPR and thanks to the amazing efforts of everyone involved.”
