HOSPITAL fundraisers in Melksham are holding a Spring Ball in the town tomorrow to raise money to help heart patients.

The Melksham committee of the Royal United Hospital's Forever Friends Appeal is raising money for the hospital's cardiology unit.

Helen Plummer, events officer for the appeal, said: "We are very grateful for their support ."

The charity has already raised over £7,400 to buy a defibrillator for the RUH's Breast Care Unit and hopes to complete the £7,000 needed by the cardiology unit.
