Gillian said: “On behalf of myself and Michael, we were delighted to be able to hand over the cheque to UHNM. We’re incredibly proud to support UHNM Charity and the amazing work they do for patients and hospital staff.

“The support we received from our members throughout the year was fantastic, and we’re thrilled to have raised such a great amount.”
