Severnside Defibs and Training was created at the start of 2022 by Chris Butcher. With well over a decade in the defibrillator industry, Chris has worked for both manufacturers and distributors, supplying everyone from the NHS and emergency services, to charities, communities, sports clubs, and businesses of every size. Whether it’s a nationwide, multi-site business, or a local start-up company, Chris has been there, providing the right defibrillator and resuscitation solutions up and down the UK.

Chris launched Severnside Defibs & Training with a clear mission: to combine the best of both worlds — manufacturer insight and distributor flexibility — into a complete, all-in-one service for anyone needing defibrillator advice, supply, maintenance, or training, all with the aim of turning the UK into a nation of lifesavers. Working with all the major defibrillator brands, such as Zoll, Cardiac Science, CU Medical Systems / iPAD, Philips, Stryker, Mediana, Mindray, Primedic, and Heartsine, as well as cabinets from the Defibsafe 2, CodeBlue CPR Cabinet, Defibstore and Aivia - Wherever you are in the UK, Chris has you covered.

What really sets Chris apart? He doesn’t just sell products — he delivers solutions. He’s here to work with you, making sure you feel confident, prepared, and supported every step of the way. One of his favourite parts of the job is running his popular defibrillator familiarisation sessions, where his passion shines brightest. Giving people the skills and confidence to save a life? That’s his real reward. (Don’t just take our word for it — check out the amazing reviews here: https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/severnsidedefibs.com

Outside of work, Chris swaps the office for the driver’s seat. He’s a keen rally driver, competing on tarmac and gravel rallies across the UK — always carrying the SDT name proudly on his rally car.
