Community Defib Project in Hawkesbury
Hawkesbury community members are well known for doing many wonderful things for the area, and one of those people is Sophie Wills, who has been doing her best to make sure remote area residents have a better chance of survival if a sudden cardiac arrest occurs.
A Registered Paramedic and Rural Fire Service volunteer, Ms Wills is the founder and chairperson of the Community Defib Project, which has improved community access to defibrillation in Wisemans Ferry and surrounding areas. This has been achieved using a $35,000 NSW Government ‘My Community Project’ grant to kickstart the community-based public access defibrillation scheme.
