Brigantes Purchase Defibrillator for Harrogate Junior Park Run

October 18, 2023

What a brilliant thing to be able to do!

We’ve purchased a portable defibrillator for the regular Junior Park Run in the Valley Gardens. There were already a couple of defibrillators set up in the Valley Gardens but they used to get vandalised so the fun run organisers asked us if we could provide them with a portable machine which they could bring to an event and take away at the end.

We presented it at the Fun Run on 1st October and there it is – the red rucksack, along with some of the 187 runners and 43 volunteer helpers.

Glad to help!
