The Lord Ashcroft COVID-19 Relief Fund also donated $135,600 to the police department to cover the costs of retrofitting the Police Fitness Center. You'll remember this as one of the welfare improvements that the Police Commissioner wants to provide to his officers.
Lyndon Guiseppi, the Lord Ashcroft Relief Fund's Chairman, handed over officially the cheque to COMPOL Chester Williams yesterday. The Commissioner was accompanied by Sergeant Jermaine Hyde, and Inspector Jane Usher, who was elected in June as the Chairman of the Police Association.
The funds will be used to acquire "state-of-the-art" gym equipment and materials for the renovation of the fitness center. In order to have a safe and well-equipped gym, which is accessible and affordable for police officers, the Department has sourced the expertise of Darwin Gallardo, the owner, and manager of Muscle Hut Gym. He will assist the cops in the renovation of the Fitness Center, and the purchase of the equipment needed.
Among other things, the donation allows the department to cover the cost of equipment, such as spinning bikes, dumbbells, Olympic Plates, the BUGE Smith machine, cable crossovers, and adjustable benches.
