SUPPORT FOR PENRITH SPORTS CLUBS
THE NSW Government is supporting safer community sport by delivering new lifesaving equipment to clubs in Penrith among 190 sporting organisations across NSW to have received new defibrillators.
The Local Sport Defibrillator Grant Program provides up to $3,000 to eligible sport and active recreation organisations for the purchase of automated external defibrillators (AEDs) at sports facilities.
Since the Program commenced, more than 2,500 defibrillators have been awarded for use at sport and recreation facilities across NSW. Penrith recipients include:
- Penrith Baseball Club.
- Penrith Rowing Club Incorporated.
The Program is part of a major investment by the NSW Government to improve safety at NSW sport and recreation facilities which includes a $150,000 grant to the Heartbeat of Football Foundation to conduct research to identify which sports facilities have AEDs installed.
The findings of the research, which commenced in September 2025, will provide vital insight and guide future government investment in the equipment.

Member for Penrith, Karen McKeown OAM MP said: “This vitally important grant program is helping to save lives in Penrith, as when both CPR is performed and an AED is used within the first 3 to 5 minutes of a cardiac arrest survival rates increase by up to 60–70 per cent. This equipment will make a significant difference to safety at our Penrith sports facilities.”
