Kia ora everyone! Have you noticed where the AED is located now? This potentially life-saving equipment can now be accessed 24/7.

Have a lovely day 🌞

💓 To make sure local AEDs (automated external defibrillators) are accessible to everyone, day and night, Hutt City Council moved an AED that was inside the Moerā Neighbourhood Hub to outside! This potentially lifesaving equipment can now be accessed 24/7.

Thanks to the ongoing support of Cornerstone Partner Julie Nevett and The Lloyd Morrison Foundation, we install and maintain community-access AEDs like this, free of charge.

Show some love if you’re feeling it too 😊💚
