The Guyra Hospital Auxiliary are a small group of volunteers who work with the staff at the Guyra Multi-Purpose Health Service (MPS) to provide items such as medical equipment, patient comfort items, and items that are used for all general health care needs.
Fundraising efforts by the Hospital Auxiliary, primarily from regular street stalls, has raised enough money to purchase some extra items for the MPS.
They have arranged for the purchase of four padded shower chairs, four foot stools and four television sets for the benefit of patients and staff.
The total value of the donated items is $7500 and the purchase would not have been possible without community support of regular street stalls conducted by the auxiliary.
Hospital Auxiliary President Di Burey said that with the dwindling number of members in the group all the effort falls on just a few shoulders.
“More members are needed to continue our fundraising for the hospital and they would be most welcome,” Di said. “I would like to thank the Guyra community for their support.”
