A Nantwich patient cared for at Crewe’s Leighton Hospital this year, has handed over £4,000 to the Breast Care Unit team.
Barbara Burrows and her husband Nigel held an event at their home, hoping to raise around £1,000 for the unit.
So they were delighted when the final total was four times that amount.
Emma Robertson, MCH Charity Manager, said: “We are so grateful to Barbara, her husband and to all the people who supported her event to raise this fantastic amount.
“It was lovely to be able to arrange the cheque presentation with the team in the unit, which gave members of staff the chance to speak to Barbara and to thank her directly.”
The team is hoping to spend the money to buy items such as a water cooler and specialised chairs for the waiting area which will greatly improve patient experience.
