Direct2florist supports the lifesaving work of the Oliver King Foundation

The Oliver King Foundation

A Bolton based family business, Direct2florist, are delighted to support the Oliver King foundation as their chosen charity. Business Development Manager, Wendy Rea, explains “We are extremely proud to support the amazing work done by the Oliver King Foundation, we know firsthand what it means to be defibrillator ready through personal experience. Managing Director Simon was training in the gym when he went into cardiac arrest, CPR was performed and staff retrieved the defibrillator, which saved Simons life. This could have been a different story if there was no defibrillator available at the gym. Thankfully Simon has made a full recovery”.

Simon Stirling, Managing Director at Direct2florist said “As well as raising money for the Charity, the work done by Mark King and the Oliver King Foundation, in raising awareness and educating the public to how important defibrillators are, and are absolutely crucial to saving lives, We at Direct2florist are keen to help whatever way we can, we are firstly going to purchase a defibrillator and training for a local school in Bolton, which will be installed by the Oliver King Foundation we will then continue to support their amazing work.
