What the petition asks
It should be mandatory for all sports grassroots and county clubs to have defibrillators nearby in case of a medical emergency.
After incidents that have happened in football and other sports, children and grassroots players are not protected from the worse case. No-one should go to play a sport they love to not come home. A defibrillator at every grassroots club should be mandatory to host games there. This could save many and give those who collapse from a cardiac arrest a fighting chance.
