A huge thank you to Luke Pooley & Ben Smith for donating £835 to Gosset ward, raised from a number of activities.
Luke and Ben, both 16, discovered that they had something very special in common.
They were both cared for on Gosset ward when they were babies; and quite possibly at the same time.
The boys decided that they wanted to fundraise for Gosset ward to say thank you for the care that they received all those years ago.
Keeping themselves very busy organising a charity football match, completing a fun run and running a raffle; which included some fantastic prizes such as a 40inch TV and afternoon tea tickets.
Luke and Ben raised £835 for the ward and came into the hospital to present it to the staff.
“For two young 16-year-old boys to take time out of their busy teenage schedules in order to fundraise to say thank you is such an extremely thoughtful and generous thing to do!
They are inspirations!” said Caroline from the charity team.
Thank you to Luke, Ben and all of their family and friends that supported them during their fundraising.
This donation will go towards making such a difference to the babies and parents on Gosset ward.
