Bridgnorth care home residents take strides to support NHS workers
Residents at a Shropshire care home have been putting their best foot forward in supporting frontline NHS workers by holding a sponsored walk.
Staff and residents from Innage Grange in Bridgnorth participated in the walk around the care home site and gardens, which raised over £800.
The funds were used to buy a variety of treats and gifts that were then donated to intensive care unit staff at The Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust, which runs Royal Shrewsbury Hospital and Princess Royal Hospital in Telford.
Home manager, Claire Childs said: “It was a wonderful group effort by residents and staff alike.
"We all appreciate how hard the NHS is working at the moment, from doctors and nurses, to housekeeping and support staff, so we wanted to do our bit to say a big thank you for their efforts.
“We had a visit from Julia Clarke, the director of corporate services at the hospital trust, who was able to meet with residents, collect the donation and share her thanks on behalf of the workers that are set to receive some delicious treats.”
