Tom Claisse, a semi-professional player with Tadcaster Albion, has been coaching football for underprivileged children at the Bilal Sports Centre in Harehills since August 2021. It was during one of his sessions that the relative of a young player collapsed.
The incident got him thinking about what might have happened had he not been there and how important it is for people to have access to defibrillators in the event of a medical emergency.
Tom worked with centre director Kamran Khan, ward councillor Salma Arif and her colleague to ensure the potentially-life saving kit could be installed.
