Cash boosts for Holbeach Hospital

The coffers at Holbeach Hospital have been boosted by two generous donations.

First, Jack Turner of Holbeach presented it with £950 for the Residents' Fund, raised from his annual Christmas lights display outside his house on Fleet Road.

The hospital also benefited from a donation of £100 from Moulton Ladies Group, who also gave money to seven other charities at a special presentation evening. They were Abbeygate Care Home, Moulton Community Centre, Holbeach and East Elloe Hospital Trust, Mia Clucas Charity, The Moulton Mill, St Barnabas Hospice and Tonic Health.

Hospital manager Maxine Winch said: “Thank you to Mr Turner for once again supporting our hospital. Our residents will benefit greatly from the donation which will pay for trips out and activities for them to enjoy.

"We also thank Moulton Ladies Group and everyone who was involved in their fundraising efforts; it is very much appreciated and the donation will be put towards creating a new Hobby Lounge for our residents."
