Public access defibrillator policy

We want your feedback on our draft Public Access Defibrillator Policy. This policy sets out how we make council buildings available for installing life‑saving defibrillators in your community.

Defibrillators can help save lives during cardiac emergencies. Your views will help us make sure the policy is clear, fair and works for people across South Lanarkshire.

How to take part

You can:

• read the draft policy
• complete a short survey

The consultation is open Wednesday 1 July to Wednesday 23 September 2026.

What happens next

We will review your feedback and update the policy. A final version will go to the Executive Committee in November 2026.

Have your say

Take part in the consultation today to help shape how defibrillators are supported in your area.
