Manchester’s newest and most exciting entertainment venue, Co-op Live Arena has opened its doors to the public, welcoming thousands of people from all across the country who have all come to the venue to watch their favourite musicians, comedians, and more. Defib Machines is proud to announce its role in ensuring the heart safety of all who attend.

As the UK’s leading supplier of automatic external defibrillators (AEDs), Defib Machines was approached by the arena’s management team to install devices throughout the venue. With a capacity of 23,500 people, it’s crucial that the arena has reliable and efficient life-saving equipment in place, in case of a cardiac emergency situation.

Enhancing Safety Measures at Co-op Live Arena: A Strategic Partnership with Defib Machines

The Co-op Live Arena is a cutting-edge venue that prioritises the safety and experience of its visitors, and Defib Machines couldn’t be more thrilled to contribute to the success of the venue. The £365m venue is expected to rival London’s O2 and draw major acts to the region.

The Managing Director of Defib Machines, Jonathan Gilbert, was elated to have been approached to equip the venue with their life-saving equipment.

“Bigger venues of course have a higher responsibility for having life-saving defibrillators on-site. Co-op Live is a brilliant example of a situation where they will have a large footfall of people’s safety to consider and they are taking that responsibility seriously. There may be 23,000 people there at any given show – so it’s imperative to have multiple AEDs at the ready, and know that when they are needed they will be in full working order. Having worked closely with the team to understand the best strategic locations for the devices, visitors can be confident and comfortable that the arena has the best coverage and support system in the UK,” Jonathan Gilbert said.

Ensuring the presence of dependable and effective life-saving equipment was a priority for the arena’s management, especially given the venue’s size. Defib Machines’ distinctive ability to oversee multiple devices at once made it the preferred choice for this task.

Defib Machines boasts an impressive 100% success rate, indicating that all their provided defibrillators which have been used in an emergency have worked exactly how they should, underscoring their reliability and life-saving efficacy.

“Defib Machines are incredibly honoured to be recognised and included in the arena’s list of state-of-the-art equipment providers,” said Jonathan Gilbert, Director of Defib Machines . “Our team has fitted the best possible solution for the arena, ensuring that visitors can enjoy their experience with peace of mind. We are committed to delivering exceptional service and support to the arena, just as we do with all our customers.”

Defib Machines’ innovative solutions are making a difference in public spaces across the UK, and our partnership with the Co-op Live Arena is a testament to its commitment to public safety.
