Volunteers’ Week Spotlight: Watch How New Defibs Are Powering Life-Saving Care

Posted during Volunteers’ Week: celebrating the impact of LIVES volunteers

This Volunteers’ Week, we’re proud to share a behind-the-scenes look at how our incredible volunteers are delivering life-saving care—with the help of powerful new equipment.

Watch the video as Wayne, one of our Community First Responders, talks through the game-changing impact of our new Zoll defibrillators. From real-time CPR feedback to safer care for children, these devices are giving our responders the edge in emergencies—before an ambulance even arrives.

Thanks to generous funding from BNA, a Lincoln-based charitable organisation, the charity has been able to complete the roll out these cutting-edge defibs across our district in Gainsborough, marking a milestone in this county-wide upgrade.

The Zoll devices also store vital data—like how long CPR has been given—ensuring a smooth handover when paramedics arrive.

A heartfelt thank you to BNA for making this possible, and to every volunteer who gives their time, skills, and compassion to help others.

This week, we celebrate our volunteers. This video is just a glimpse of the difference you make.
