Dear Member,

With Spring finally here it brings longer days, flowers in bloom and a renewed sense of energy; it also reminds us of the power of hope and healing. Thanks to your kindness and generosity our charity continues to provide hospital equipment to improve patient care and help save more lives. In the last 3 years we have gifted £650,000 of equipment across all medical departments, including Critical Care, A & E, Respiratory Unit, Endoscopy, Ophthalmology, Paediatrics.

Fundraising Chairman Sue Skinner and her marvellous team of talented ladies have been planning a variety of events for the coming months, please join us if you can and bring along your friends.

I can never give enough praise to our volunteers and staff who keep our four shops running day in day out, providing a much-needed service and always with a smile. Many of our donations and legacies are in appreciation of the kindness that patients and visitors have received from our shop staff. Extended thanks to the members of our committees who give their time, expertise and commitment to the League and have done so for many years.

We feel very lucky to receive such wonderful support from so many people in our community and from local businesses who continue to help us by providing sponsorship for our fundraising events. On behalf of the League of Friends I would like to say a ‘huge’ thank you to you all.

Yours sincerely,
Susan Hurdiss, Organising Secretary
