Vandalised defibrillator unit restored to Croagh Patrick

A spirited community effort has seen vandalised defibrillator united repaired and reinstalled on the summit of Croagh Patrick.

The life-saving equipment was destroyed my mindless thugs a number of weeks ago.

A large rock was used to break open the door, the defibrillator was taken out and the pads removed.

The local community rallied and a team involving Mayo Mountain Rescue and Mayo Civil Defence, along with tradespeople and volunteers, made the journey on foot to the top of the Reek.

The defibrillator on the summit is now fully operational.
