A GRANDFATHER who was brought back to life on the street with a community defibrillator has inspired a fundraising campaign to get the life-saving equipment installed at his local pub.

Steve Fursse, 65, was delivering a kitchen unit in Canterbury, when he collapsed in the street.

Two police officers who were patrolling nearby saw him collapse and ran to his aid.
