Help Us Keep Our Defibrillator Ready ❤️

Harwich Museum is raising funds for a new battery for our defibrillator, an essential piece of lifesaving equipment that could one day make a vital difference to someone in our community.
We’re asking for your help. Every donation, no matter how small, will bring us closer to ensuring our defibrillator remains ready to use when it’s needed most.

If you’re able to contribute, please support our GoFundMe and help us keep this important piece of emergency equipment operational.
🙏 Please donate if you can, and share this post to help us reach our target.
