SPASTIC patients at Brock- hall Hospital, near Black­ burn, and other patients who arc unable to walk, will soon be out and about in the countryside — thanks to the generosity of a number of local organisations, and the Variety Club of Great Britain. The hospital has taken delivery of a new 22-seater “Sunshine Coach,” costing £4,250. It was handed over by Mr Sid Stewart, manager of Blackburn* Cavendish


Club, who had. with his staff, raised a large propor­ tion of the money with charity concerts, collections and other activities. In all, £2.500 has been


raised locally, and the balance has been donated by the Manchester Branch of the Variety Club of Great Britain. The coach was ac­ cepted by County Aid. Fred Worsley, a member of the hospital management com­ mittee, who voiced thanks to all concerned in the project.


"Kindness is a thing that you cannot give away,” said Aid. Worsley, "It always re­ turns, and I hope that everyone who worked so hard for this coach will have kindness returned to them many .times.” Also” present were repre­


sentatives of the hospital staff, other members of the management committee, and officials of organisations who had contributed Afterwards, the adapt­ ability of the new vehicle

was demonstrated. Seats in­ side the coach, which lias been specially built by Messrs Lex Tillotson Ltd. of Burnley, can be arranged as required, and there is plenty of room for wheelchairs. At the rear, a hydraulically- operated life ensures a safe passage for patients getting on or off the coach. Above, a handshake marks


the presentation of the coach to Brockhall. Pictured are (left) County Aid. Worsley, and Mr Stewart.
