Fair boost for children’s ward

The children’s ward at Pilgrim Hospital, Boston is set to receive a funding boost thanks to the success of a summer fair held earlier in the year.
The fair, which was held in August at Boston Town Football Club raised a staggering £11,311 which will now go towards creating a more welcoming environment for children staying on Ward 4a, including ward improvements, enhanced family facilities, and new distraction activities.
United Lincolnshire Hospitals Charity Fundraiser, Connor Hill, who worked with the team and other willing staff who gave their time so freely, was overjoyed with the success.
He said: “We are so proud of what we achieved and enormously grateful to all the local businesses who sponsored elements of the fete, or donated gifts or time.
“Without their support, we would not have been able to raise such a significant amount of money which will help improve the lives of the children during their stay on the ward.”
