We’re working with OKEHAMPTON PADS (Public Access Defibrillators) to raise funds to install a new defibrillator on site here at Granite Way Cycles, as the nearest one is in the town centre. Oke PADs assists with community defibrillators & offers free community training to anyone wanting to learn how to use one. These pieces of equipment help save lives & are available for everyone to use.
We see a lot of footfall around our site, with the new Cafe & Bike hire centre, free parking for public access directly onto the Granite Way cycle trail & footpaths up onto Dartmoor. The new Dartmoor Train Line comes directly into the station opposite, and people from close to home & further afield come to enjoy both Okehampton Youth Hostel (YHA) & Adventure Okehampton Activity Centre.
Granite Way Cycles will be doing our own bit of fundraising to add to this pot, but if you’re able to, please try & help us reach our target, to get a new defib installed for our wonderful community to have access to. Our recent open day raised over £380 towards this target and efforts are continuing
All money raised will go directly to this campaign. Thank you in advance for your contribution to this cause!
