Welcome to Alfriston Heartstart Voluntary Community Responder Team.
Alfriston is a lovely Village in East Sussex surrounded by wonderful views and countryside.
We are a small team of dedicated people trained by South East Coast Ambulance Service to be Community Responders.
Formed in January 2006 we have done lots of fundraising over the past few months and thanks to lots of hard work we now have 5 Defibrillators and kits to use in our Village and surrounding area, we are very proud of the fundraising we have done with such a small team.
The types of calls the team may be sent to by Ambulance control are as follows : -
CARDIAC ARRESTS
UNCONSCIOUS PATIENTS
CHEST PAINS
BREATHING DIFFICULTIES
PATIENT'S THAT ARE FITTING
MEDICAL COLLAPSES
MINOR TRAUMA
