Welsh Hearts

We are the leading heart charity in Wales for placing defibrillators in communities and delivering CPR and defibrillator training in Wales. We are regarded as the heart charity at the centre of saving lives in Wales. Cardiovascular disease accounts for a third of all deaths in Wales, where the death rate is higher than in the majority of countries in Western Europe.

Did you know that there are 8000 sudden cardiac arrests in Wales, with only a 3% survival rate? When a defibrillator is used, the survival rate is increased to 47-50%

At the time of writing Welsh Hearts has placed 602 defibrillators in Wales and trained 18,940 people in CPR.
