AED Grant Support Scheme

You can play a vital role in helping to save lives in your local community by applying for funding to purchase Public Access Defibrillator (AED) equipment and/or CPR Training support in your area.

After calling 999 and performing CPR, using a defibrillator is the best way to increase the chances of someone surviving a cardiac arrest.

With the support of £70,000 of funding from the Department for Communities, Armagh City, Banbridge & Craigavon Borough Council is delighted to be able to offer grant support to groups to assist with the purchase of these vital life-saving devices.

The aim of the scheme is to address current gaps in provision across the Borough.

All applications are to be submitted online using the link:

Applications open on the 6^th May 2022 at 10am and will close at 4pm on the 31^st May 2022

PCC Citizen HSC Hub: Consultation on the reform of adult social care

Adult social care describes the activities, services and relationships that help us to live an independent, healthy and inclusive life. It is available to any adult with eligible needs who requires assistance due to disability, vulnerability, illness, incapacity or old age, and is designed to promote independence, social inclusion, safeguarding and wellbeing’.

Adult Social Care is a vital part of our Health and Social Care System and impacts on the lives of people across society including people who use social care services, family carers and the people who work in social care.

The pandemic has shone a light on the invaluable role social care plays in people’s lives and the wellbeing of our society. It has also revealed the many challenges faced in provision and the need to reform our social care system.
