The group, which has nurseries in Redditch (Worcestershire), Studley (Warwickshire) and Northfield (Birmingham), needs to raise £3,250 to buy and install three defibrillators in its settings, plus another for public use, available at any time, in the centre of Studley.
To raise the money, Bright Kids has launched a campaign on Crowdfunding, with rewards, including a personalised thank you certificate and a ‘shout-out’ on Facebook, for those who pledge £10 and over. So far, they have raised £725 and have until 30 November to reach their target.
