The Mayor of Great Dawley presented a cheque for £1,355 to the Children’s Ward at the Princess Royal Hospital (PRH) in Telford.

Councillor Malcolm Randle presented the cheque to Julia Clarke, Director of Corporate Governance, and Lisa Gilks, Children’s Ward Manager, yesterday.

SaTH Charity, the registered charity of The Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust, which runs PRH and the Royal Shrewsbury Hospital, is one of Mayor Randle’s two chosen charities and he specifically requested the funds are spent for the benefit of patients on the Children’s Ward.

The money was raised through community events, raffles and a Mayor’s Day.

Lisa Gilks, Ward Manager, said: “I would like to say a huge thank you to Cllr Malcom Randle for his generous donation. This will allow us to continue to make what is a really difficult time for children and their families as comfortable as possible, and we want to thank everyone who was involved for thinking of the Childrens Ward.”
