Formby Hall Golf Club hosted a fundraising Golf Day and Dinner which raised over £20,000 for the Transplant Unit. Te fantastic evening was hosted by Pete Price and Willy Miller and sponsored by
Wongs Jewellers and Bet Victor, with entertainment provided by MD Productions, Chris Maloney and Tricia McTeague. Mr Perera, the surgeon who performed the life-saving
surgery, made an emotional speech about the transplant journey, and John and Claire were delighted that the Transplant Co-ordinators who had helped them so much through what was a very difficult time were also able to attend the event.
