A family doctor said thank you to people of a town for supporting him and his practice over the past 25 years.
Dr Vipul Masharani organised a Healthfest at his surgery in Lutterworth on Saturday.
During the event, donations and a raffle raised £506, which will be shared between LOROS hospice and the Community Heartbeat Trust, which promotes the installation of defibrillators.
This September marks LOROS’ 40th birthday since it first opened its doors in 1985.
They say elephants never forget. Now LOROS is keeping that promise with its Remember Me elephant. The mammoth elephant is the work of local artist Anna Shutt, who was inspired by looking through photograph albums of relatives.
LOROS Hospice is pleased to confirm it will receive a share of the Government’s recently announced £75 million capital fund for hospices in England.
