Crosspool now has a community defibrillator

Thanks to a generous donation from a local resident and a council grant Crosspool Forum has been able to buy and install a defibrillator for emergency use in the community.

The defibrillator is located on the right-hand external side wall of St Columba’s church, Manchester Road S10 5PL.

In the event of an emergency, where you think someone might require the defibrillator:

  • Call 999 as usual
  • Let the emergency services know that there is a defibrillator locally
  • The emergency services will then let you know the access code and the procedure to be follow so that you, your staff or others involved can help

Defibrillators have been shown to save lives around the country and we hope that this will be a valuable asset to the community.

If you have any queries please contact Crosspool Forum on crosspoolforum@gmail.com.

Tombstone Walking Festival walk to start from Crosspool

A free walk which forms part of Sheffield Walking Festival in September will depart from Crosspool.

On Monday 11 September 2017, the 16.5km walk leaves Crosspool shops at 10:20am and will then visit a number of cemeteries on the western edge of Sheffield.

As well as the cemeteries we go along the Rivelin Valley with its industrial archaeology and past a mini sculpture park. The walk has great views of the moorlands and the countryside. We finally take the old coffin path to High Bradfield and if we have time visit the motte and baile.
