Every school in England to have a defibrillator outside for public use

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Being a grassroots football coach defibrillators could be a life saving peace of equipment. With grassroots teams mainly played at schools I feel having a defibrillator would help reassure schools and grassroots supporters and the general public.
I feel If this is spoken about in Parliament or with the government that will help support the petition in helping save life's. I understand there is an expense to this but I feel a life saving peace of equipment is better to have and not need, than need and not have.
