ON behalf of the Friends of Trowbridge Hospital and Community I would like to extend our sincere thanks to the Trowbridge Carnival Committee and also to the people of Trowbridge for the most generous donation of £1,000 towards the scanner appeal trust fund.
We now hold the sum of £7,900 in the trust fund and this money is available to the people of Trowbridge for medical scans.
If any person in Trowbridge is in need of a scan they may apply to their own GP and their GP may then apply to the local GP panel. If the GP panel decides that a scan can be sanctioned the cost of the scan will be met by the trust fund.
We are very pleased that the scanner appeal has been so successful and has been so well supported by the people of Trowbridge and district.
It is particularly pleasing that the funds which have been raised are immediately available to pay for scans for those people who have otherwise been unable to have a scan through the National Health Service.
M SHORT
Chairman, Friends of Trowbridge Hospital and Community
