ONCE again the summer fair of the League of Friends at the Royal South Hospital was a great success and raised much-needed funds for the patients throughout the hospital.

Mrs Floss Simmonds of Millbrook, who is 92, made all the beautiful dolls that grannies can't resist buying!

We urgently need new volunteers to work in the coffee shops at the hospital, just a few hours a week would be a great help to us, also if you have any paperback books you no longer need we would really appreciate them, just drop them off at the coffee shops.

Many thanks for your continuing support of our work.
