Manager raises funds for screening

Tina Willey, Anchor scheme manager at Highfield Court in Rotherham and her colleagues have raised over £450 for a brilliant cause.

Tina's sister, Dianne Ford, who is a nurse at nearby Rotherham Hospital was recently diagnosed with breast cancer. She has had the cancer removed and recently started radiotherapy.

Tina says: "I wanted to do a fundraising event for cancer, and Dianne suggested the breast screening ward at Rotherham Hospital as she found the staff very supportive and is hugely thankful to them for their brilliant care.

"We had over 30 prizes, some donated by customers here at Highfield Court, shops and some by kind family and friends. We raised a massive £457, which myself and my assistant manager Jackie Dekanski presented to the Rotherham Hospital community charity last week."

Dianne’s daughters, who are also members of the nursing profession, helped raise awareness with their friends who also contributed by purchasing raffle tickets.
