On the right of the photograph is Richard Wiltshire who is Vice Commodore at the Yacht Club. He held the ribbon whilst Keith Mason, centre, did the honours of the unveiling and cutting the ribbon.
You may have read about Keith in the local paper - he suffered an 'out of the blue' heart attack whilst playing at Teignmouth golf club, just a few weeks ago.
He survived thanks to a combination of a defibrillator in the club house, the presence of a cardiac nurse and the air ambulance. Keith said "I was very lucky and I am supporting the provision of these machines"
What better person to do the unveiling than Keith - it just shows that even a fit and healthy person may need a defib'
Thank you to everyone who turned up at the unveiling - great to see you all there and we look forward to seeing you at the next one! Raising funds for this has started.
Shirley
