Ferryhill Community Partnership is the latest group to receive funding through Ferryhill Town Council’s Members Initiative Fund (MIF).
Representatives from the organisation, Paula Bihari and Collette Trimmer, recently attended a cheque presentation at Ferryhill Town Hall, where Councillors Vicky Collins, Bernie Lamb and Christine Woods presented them with a cheque for £1,000 from their MIF allocations.
Funds donated through the scheme will be used to enable a community defibrillator to be installed in an easily accessible location, outside Ferryhill Sports & Education Centre, so that it can be of benefit to the whole community.
Cllrs Collins, Lamb and Woods said: “We are delighted to be able to support such a worthwhile project, which will ensure that a life-saving defibrillator is fully accessible for the community, in the event of a medical emergency.”
