A donation of £500 from Grimsby Freemasons is bringing St Andrew’s Hospice patients and family members closer together – quite literally – by helping to fund a £16,000 ‘cuddle bed’.
The bed, pictured above, is extendable, allowing a loved one to lay alongside the patient to share some quality time.
Members of Astral Lodge asked Ralph Thacker, one of its newer members, to present the cheque on their behalf, accompanied by current Lodge Master Keith Edwards. He handed the funds to Charity Coordinator Helena Salisbury, below.
