A NEW Silsden gym has had a defibrillator installed.
The lifesaving device, at Woody's Gym, in Highfield Lane, will also be available for community use during the building's opening hours.
Clare Woodhead, who owns the premises and is a physio at the site, said: "In environments where people are exercising there is always a possibility that someone could have a cardiac arrest, so we thought for the sake of a bit of expense it would be well worth having the security of a defibrillator.
"I'm keen to make people aware that it is also there for the community should the need ever arise."
