Defibrillator Awareness Day, Community Heartbeat, Cllr Joyce Lucas, Karen Ball Fund

Defibrillator Awareness Day, Community Heartbeat, Cllr Joyce Lucas, Karen Ball Fund.

Today in Oakham Town Council Chamber people were being shown how to use a Defibrillator
it is something I would like to know more about, unfortunately Cllr Joyce Lucas is in charge of this
life saving project and if she refuses to tell me the location of a tree, I am sure she won't tell me how to
use a Defibrillator.

I stood at the chamber door for a moment and took this photograph whilst listening to her constant gossip and decided not to go in and spoil my day. Whilst leaving I thought about her terrible speach when she was last made Mayor which included "I will not listen to gossip" forgetting to include I wont create it.

Prize for guessing how many squares the ladies knitted.

Oakham Knit and Natter Club were at Victoria Hall and
Oakham Town Council Chamber.

Knitting as many squares as they could in 12 hours to support
a very good cause.
