A heart attack is a medical emergency and you should call 999 for an ambulance immediately
The Community Council looks after the four defibrillators in Bro Machno by checking them regularly – and after every use. We check the batteries and pads and we make sure that the ambulance service knows that the defibrillators are emergency ready. In 2025, we received several thousand pounds in funding from Clocaenog Forest Wind Farm Fund for two new defibrillators and cabinets in Cwm Penmachno.
