What the petition asks

Defibrillators save lives. If someone has a cardiac arrest time is everything. Having tools available to hand can give people a chance of survival.I lost my mum to cardiac arrest while she was at work & there was no difibrillator on site even though she worked in a large scale government building.
A defibrillator is a device that gives a high energy electric shock to the heart through the chest wall to someone who is in cardiac arrest.
