A Nantwich electrician is carrying out a good deed every month in 2026 – including installing life-saving defibrillators across town venues.
Nick Lundie, 34, of Nantwich-based Lundie Electrical, is midway through his community challenge which includes installing defibrillators and also supporting men’s mental health groups.
His campaign is being supported by Lock Stock Self Storage where he rents a unit to store tools and equipment.
The two companies are now urging more local organisations to come forward for help.
Nick contacted Men in Sheds Nantwich to offer his firm’s help after seeing a social media post about its work at Gate Farm Rural Enterprise Park near Nantwich.
Nick said: “It is a good way for men to meet up, have a chat and work on a project or learn new skills.
“There is such a need for it, offering support and a safe space really helps men and their mental health.
“We put in some LED lights and some additional sockets for them and I also had tools and kit which I was able to donate to them.
“I also got a few donations from our electrical suppliers which I was able to give to them.
“I have also offered to put on a training session for the members too where they can learn some electrical skills.”
Nick is working with Nantwich sports bar GOAT and its bid to install defibrillators at various venues around town.
Nick said: “They have sourced a number of defibs which they are donating to other venues and we are helping to install them free of charge.
“And separately we have installed a defib at another pub, the Bhurtpore at Aston.
“Other community projects who might want our support can email us or contact us through social media.”
Lock Stock area manager Richard Warner said: “Our policy of supporting communities ties in perfectly with the work Lundie Electrical is doing in helping good causes.
“We have already helped local groups but we always want to do more when we can, so I’d encourage community organisations to get in touch to chat about how we can help them.
“Lundie Electrical is one of many local companies who are choosing Lock Stock for storage.
“The times we are open are hugely convenient for businesses of all sizes.
“Our storage sites are CCTV-monitored, they are safe and secure, we really put huge emphasis on security, and that is why a lot of businesses of all sizes use us.”
Nick runs his firm with business partner Sam Cropper and Nick’s wife Kelly helps with administration.
The firm employs three electricians and is hiring for a fourth.
Stacey Rutter, founder and chair of Nantwich Men in Sheds, said: “We have been thrilled by the level of support from the local community and Nick and the Lundie Electrical team have been absolutely fantastic with their support.
“We have been able to add in new sockets and a whole new lighting system as a result of their support and they have even donated tools to allow the men to get on with their projects.
“We started the shed in November and it is a welcoming environment, open to all men aged 18 and upwards and is aimed at tackling loneliness and isolation and promoting positive wellbeing.
“We run from 1pm to 5pm on a Monday and noon to 8pm on a Wednesday.”
