More than £500 has been raised by staff at the Rakehead Rehabilitation Centre at Burnley General Teaching Hospital to improve the environment for patients and visitors.
Speech and Language Therapist Lee Hughes, ably assisted by Healthcare Assistant Linda Marshall, organised the Easter Grand Raffle that raised a record £539.22.
The annual event, which handed out dozens of prizes, was preceded by a 30-minute concert from members of the Pennine Lancashire Stroke Association Choir.
Raffle organiser Lee Hughes, said: “On behalf of the Rakehead Rehabilitation Centre, I particularly want like to thank Gala Bingo, Rolands Florists, Dawn Rose and staff for donating raffle prizes, as well as all the patients who gave us handmade chocolate hampers.
“It was wonderful to once again welcome members of the Pennine Lancashire Stroke Association Choir to Rakehead. They visit us each month, bring so much joy to the patients and very definitely aid their recovery.”
In addition, the hospital’s official charity ELHT&Me further boosted the fundraising efforts with an extra £350 donation to purchase a new cooker.
