💚 Restart a Heart Day 💚

At CFRA, our mission is to empower every community to save lives.

Just a little snapshot of our Shocktober initiatives so far… ⚡️

2 Shock Stations installed in Beaumaris including another Neighbourhood Watch Bayside cardiac arrest team and the other at Seaview Pharmacy.

An energy filled training evening for our new Responders delivered by our clinical lead Dylan 👏

And heading into 48 hours responding and chilling at Dance in the Wild in tranquil Gembrook 😎

At any age, we all can play our part in saving lives.

💚 Another CFRA Shock Station® in the heart of Beaumaris! 💚

A huge thank you to Charith and the team at Seaview Pharmacy Beaumaris for championing this initiative and securing the permit needed to bring another potentially lifesaving defibrillator to the community.

Greaham, thank you for your time, effort and dedication in installing another Shock Station for the community.

Next up is Shock Saver® training, empowering local community members to respond in a cardiac emergency and establishing CFRA’s 62nd community cardiac arrest response team across Melbourne!

Every Shock Station brings us one step closer to a community where more people are equipped to act when every second counts.
