Westhoughton Mark assist Peace Craft Lodge |
|
| When Brian Sharples of Westhoughton Mark Lodge, approached the Mark Charities along with Peter Coates and told them of the desire of a local 'Reflections Group' at Orrell Old Barn, to obtain a defibrillator the Mark Charities decided to get involved. | |
| Brian, who is the Master of Peace Craft Lodge, was involved with a fund raising race night held by the Craft Lodge, which raised £300, to fund the purchase but when a shortfall in funding was discovered the Mark Charities stepped into make it good. | |
| Stephen Ward, who is pictured below left with his wife is a member of Peace Lodge and the Reflections Group. | |
| The defibrillatior was presented to the group in the presence of Peace Lodge Secretary Paul Simpson and Group Charity Steward Gary Smith, by Peter Connolly and Howard Emmett. | |
| The Lodge Junior Deacon exchanged wand for power tools and duly attached machine with bracket to wall. | |
