In 2021 Rob suffered a heart attack and his life was saved by a defibrillator. This was in stark contrast to his earlier experience, when in 2009 Rob’s father Peter Skoulding was not so lucky as he tragically died of a heart attack.
Since the loss of his father, Rob has been on a mission to get as many defibrillators installed across the town of March, including making this campaign at the heart of his work as local Mayor.
Rob was joined today by Jo Pope and Emma Cole who organised March’s EstaFest where Rob ran his famous wheel barrow drink stall to raise money for more defibrillators and local electrician Darren Biggs who kindly has installed many of the defibrillators around March free of charge. Thanks to Jo, Emma and Darren for all they have done to help, and congratulations to Rob on what is now his 31st defibrillator across the town - an amazing achievement.
