For the third year running, the Burns Night Celebration in Altrincham has raised much-appreciated funds for MedEquip4Kids.  Nearly 100 guests attended the event, which was held at the  Cresta Court Hotel and featured traditional Burns Night fare and poetry followed by dancing. A fun photo booth provided extra entertainment and a fabulous raffle completed the night.

MedEquip4Kids Project Co-ordinator Evelyn Glarvey, who was at the celebration with her husband and friends, says: “As well as being a thoroughly enjoyable evening, the Burns Night dinner raised a fantastic £1,300, which will help us provide the extra equipment our local hospitals need. A special thank you to Garry, Graham and Brian for organising the event and for your continued support.”

“The specialist treatment chairs are a new vital resource for the therapy team and nursing staff to be able to safely and comfortably sit extremely complex, dependant, critical care patients out of bed. The chairs allow us to begin the patient’s rehabilitation journey by providing appropriate postural support at the same time as pressure relief to allow the patient to build the muscle strength to hold themselves up against gravity. This allows them to begin to interact with their environment in a more normal way, enabling them to participate in meaningful activities such as meal times and activities of daily living.”
