The Roberts Creek Community Association received a major donation from the Roberts Creek branch of the Sunshine Coast Healthcare Auxiliary of an Automatic External Defibrillator (AED) for the Roberts Creek Hall on Nov. 12. The funds to purchase the AED were willed to the branch from the estate of Ellen Knott. This AED will be mounted in the kitchen area of the hall, and the Roberts Creek Fire Department will also have access to it (they have one on each truck as well). An AED can be used to help someone who is in cardiac arrest or having a heart attack. They are easy to use, and do not require training.
