A vital new community health initiative is launching in Callington this month, as the first of several public access defibrillators is installed under the Tamar Valley Community Defibrillator Scheme. This community-driven project is led by Callington Rotary, supported by Callington Lions, and other local charities, with the goal of expanding life-saving resources throughout the local area.

The first defibrillator, generously funded by The Cornwall Bakery, will go live on Wednesday, April 10. It is located on the building opposite the security office near the Bakery shop, and will be accessible 24/7. In an emergency, callers to 999 will be provided with the exact location and access code if this unit is the nearest available.

“This is a significant step towards improving community health and emergency response in Callington,” said a spokesperson for the scheme. “With more units planned for the area, we are working to ensure this life-saving equipment is readily available when it’s needed most.”

The initiative is run entirely as a charity, and ongoing community support is vital. In addition to the defibrillator rollout, Basic Life Support training, including how to use a defibrillator, will soon be offered at Callington Town Hall. There will be a small fee to cover equipment use and contribute to the continued maintenance of the defibrillators.

How to help: Local residents and businesses are encouraged to get involved, whether through donations, spreading awareness, or attending training sessions.

The trustees of Callington Youth Project Group are appealing for donations to help buy the building they currently lease.

The group which was established in late 2021 is running out of time and has just until the end of April to find the funding needed.

Paul Carey, chair of CYPG said: “If we can secure ownership of the building, we can concentrate on obtaining running costs and run more sessions. We will have the opportunity to refurbish the upper floors and convert them to four flats, which we could let you young adults in their first jobs, thus providing a stable income for the charity.”

The Vault opened a year ago and is currently used twice a week for drop-in sessions for young people aged 13 to 21 years which have proved popular.

The youth project was set up after the founding trustees realised there was a lack of facilities for young people in Callington, especially those that tend to not engage with the more organised activities.

Cleerway Community Church is meeting on Sunday morning at The Memorial Hall, Well Lane, St Cleer PL14 5EA at 9.45am for breakfast. The morning service starts at 10.30am. All are welcome, irrespective of belief or church background.
