7. ANY OTHER BUSINESS –
 Margaret thanked all the Committee for their hard work.
 Mervin Rice with advice from his son has suggested that we purchase a ‘preparation pack’ that
should be kept in the village hall. This pack contains essentials e.g. razor, scissors etc that is
needed to prep a patient prior to using the defibrillator. There is already one that is kept with the MP
defib but having a second back in the hall could save time. Committee agreed that this should be
purchased and kept in the hall with clear signage to visitors. He also suggested a carry bag for
the existing defib to protect it – all agreed to purchase ACTION Mel to buy
 Kevin suggested a second defib would benefit the village to be sited on the Village Hall. After
discussion it was decided to add this item to the next Committee meeting ACTION Sally, please
add to Agenda for July SF
There being no other business, Chris thanked everyone for attending the meeting.
