A BOWLING club in Stockton Heath is celebrating after getting the cash to buy its own defibrillator.

Stockton Heath Seniors Bowling Club, based in Alexandra Park, were supported in the bid by Warrington Borough Council’s south neighbourhood team through the bid to the local area fund.

The fund offers community groups up to £2,000 for projects that contribute to the south area plan.

The defibrillator will be on site and can be used by any member of the bowling club or park visitor.

Clr Kate Hannon, executive board member for leisure, community and culture, was on hand to present the group with their defibrillator.
