Deadline: 21 September 2024 (or once all the funding has been allocated)

Organisations across England are invited to bid for a share of £1 million of government funding to buy life-saving defibrillators for community spaces like town halls, local parks or post offices. The fund will support provision of 2000 AED’s. These will be distributed across England during 2023-2024, supporting any organisation based in England that is not eligible for the current Department of Education AED programme. The funding for the scheme is based on a first come first served basis. The funding will be allocated on the following basis:

  • 100 applications will be selected by DHSC to receive a fully funded AED – selection is based on areas that are most in need of AED throughout England. Applicants will be advised in mid October and units shipped in mid November.
  • 1900 applications will receive partial DHSC funding for an AED – organisations will be required to provide their own match funding of c.£750.
