Hi parents!

Can you all please take a moment to sign and share this petition for a cause very close to my heart.

petition.parliament.uk/petitions/194859

Sudden Cardiac Arrest is something that could happen to anyone of us at any time. There is no warning and it can happen to even the most young and healthy of people. If a defibrillator is used & effective CPR is performed within 3-5 minutes of cardiac arrest, survival chances increase from 6% to 74%.

We have only a two days left to get 5000 more signatures on our petition. Normally we'd have 6 months to do this but because of the snap election, we've only had two weeks. This is something that could save your life or the life of someone you love, please take a moment to pass it on and potentially save a family from suffering the heartbreak that comes with the sudden loss of a loved one.

Thank you all so much!

Why don't you put it in chat? Much busier than this board and you will get your numbers quicker.

Thanks AnthonyPandy, I will do that. I'm new to Mumsnet so I don't know exactly how it works yet.

Signed! A friend of mine lost her 14 year old son 2 days before Christmas due to sudden cardiac arrest... it really can happen to anyone 😟

user1493647018 · 01/05/2017 15:58

You're right Moana123, it's a horrible horrible condition and the survival rate could be improved so much with access to a defibrilator. Thanks so much for signing everyone, please share it on Facebook as well if you can!
