A charitable donation of £800 is set to benefit patients and families at an Ashby-based mental health unit thanks to the local lodge of Royal Antediluvian Order of Buffaloes (RAOB).
The donation to Rotherham Doncaster and South Humber (RDaSH) NHS Foundation Trust charity, Your Hearts and Minds was made by Scunthorpe and District Provincial Grand Lodge to say thank you for the excellent care and support given to one its members at Great Oaks Mental Health Unit on Ashby High Street.
The funds have been raised through events and collections over the past 12 months after the charity was chosen by Provincial Grand Primo Eric Longbottom and were presented to Your Hearts and Minds Fundraising Manager Jenny Baynham and Lindsay Clague, RDaSH Senior Administrator at the RAOB Club on Wednesday 12 February.
Jenny Baynham said: “On behalf of all the team at Great Oaks and our charity, I’d like to say a huge thank you to everyone at the Lodge for this amazing support.
“There are so many worthy local charities, and we are extremely grateful to have been supported in this way. The money will go towards supporting other local patients and families in our care.”
