£1.2m football defibrillator fund launched
A £1.2 MILLION defibrillator fund has been launched, a year on from Fabrice Muamba’s near-fatal cardiac arrest during an FA Cup match, to help save lives in football clubs and their communities.
The Football Association (FA) and the British Heart Foundation (BHF) have teamed up so that more than 900 defibrillators will be at hand for non-league and grassroots football, from the Football Conference premier division to the County League and clubs in the Women’s Super League.
