Members Area

This area is for our local u3a information.

Our Committee and AGM Minutes and other Papers/Policies are password protected and accessed via the Link at the top right of this page.

Files, listed below, and accessed to the right of this page, are not protected and can be readily opened by clicking on the link opposite:
+ The Principles of the u3a Movement
+ Personal Data - You and Uttoxeter u3a
+ Defibrillator - Instructions on use (there are 2 files in the links opposite, added as an aid-memoir for those who have attended the usage sessions, but would also be of interest to others. The instruction sheet may appear ominous but this is not the case in reality. The main things to remember if you are ever called upon to access or use the equipment is:
1. The defibrillator can only be accessed by a code given to you by the 999 or 112 operator.
2. You are therefore in phone contact with a trained operator who will take you through all the stages.
3. On opening the defibrillator box, the defibrillator will talk to you, as well as the operator, and gives very clear instructions on what you should do. Importantly the defibrillator will NOT let you give anyone an electric shock if it is not needed.
4. It is unlikely that you will be alone when the defibrillator is called for as the most important thing is that CPR is being applied to the patient at the same time.
If you would like more information, or would like some further instructions, speak to John Roberts on the Computer Help Desk in the first instance.
