Since this announcement, as part of the ongoing rollout, over 3,900 defibrillators have been delivered to state funded schools.
As of 26 April 2023, 2 defibrillators have been delivered to state funded schools in the Stockport constituency and 12 to schools in Stockport Local Authority. All eligible schools in Stockport are expected to receive a defibrillator by the end of the 2022/23 academic year. Schools will be contacted by the supplier, Lyreco, once their defibrillator has been dispatched.
