Hempstead Defibrillator
what3words location - ///ribcage.eyeful.slopes

Pammie Wallis had the original idea for a village defibrillator and competed in the Prudential 100 cycling event to raise funds.
A big thank you is due to all those people who sponsored or donated. Significant contributions were made by the Village Hall Committee, the Parochial Church Council and the Parish Council.

The defibrillator is housed in a cabinet inside the old telephone kiosk near the Village Hall on The Street, Hempstead. The Ambulance Service has confirmed registration of the machine and signage has been added to the kiosk.

The Zoll AED Plus Defibrillator is ready for use in an emergency.

Hi, my name is Claire and I am one of the Community Connectors at North Norfolk District Council. We specialise in promoting and supporting groups and organisations across the District.
We strive to build links between services and people by connecting them to improve their health, wellbeing and the community spirit for residents of North Norfolk.
We can provide information about community groups, where you’ll receive a warm welcome and support or signpost you to organisations who can provide financial and emotional assistance.
The rising living costs are affecting us all, but we can help find local food hubs and warm spaces.
Maybe you are new to the area and would like to meet like-minded people, or perhaps you would like to start a new hobby or volunteer - we can help.
If you run a community or voluntary group, we can help you by providing support to recruit volunteers, find funding streams or try to encourage more people to participate.
