A new two-tone door has been installed on a defibrillator in Warwick to make it clear that a bleed control kit is available should anyone nearby suffer a major injury.

The defibrillator was first installed outside Shire Hall by Warwick Rotary Club in 2012 and is available 24/7 in case anyone suffers a cardiac arrest.

Recently West Midlands Ambulance Service donated a bleed control kit to the club funded by NHS Charities Together and this has been added to the cabinet.

Warwickshire County Council first aiders at Shire Hall have also brushed up their lifesaving skills to use the kit.

Available 24/7 in case of an emergency, anyone can call 999 and get the code to access the defibrillator which will 'talk you through' lifesaving CPR, or the bleed control kit

Since 2012 many schools and businesses in Warwick have received CPR training from Warwickshire Hearts, West Midlands Ambulance Service, British Heart Foundation and others.

The Bleed Control Kit can be used in all forms of major bleeding, whether from knife crime, assaults or accidents and gives victims the few extra minutes needed for the emergency service to arrive by controlling blood until an ambulance arrives.

Bleed Control Kits cost less than £100 and could be held by town centre pubs, nightclubs and even schools.
