A public defibrillator has been installed in an Airdrie village, thanks to a community effort completed by family and friends in memory of the man who began the project.
The lifesaving device is now in place outside Dickson’s Chemist on Coatbridge Road in the centre of Glenmavis and is available at any time should it be needed to provide vital assistance in the event of a cardiac emergency.
Fundraising to install the equipment was begun last year by local resident David Morgan, who then sadly passed away in October aged 75 – with his wife Anne and friends ensuring the work was completed and also installating a plaque bearing his name beside the defibrillator.
