Choir raises funds to the tune of £1,576
Members of the Good Company Singers visited QEHB recently to present a cheque for £1,576, raised through a concert they performed last year at St Peter's Church, Little Aston.
The idea for the fundraising concert came about because one of the choir members, Christine Besanko, is being treated at the hospital.
Christine commented "It was lovely to come to the hospital today for a cheque presentation alongside just some of the choir members who have not only supported me personally, but also worked so hard to create such a great event which raised an amount far beyond my expectation.
"I am so grateful to all the staff who look after me at the hospital and it is lovely to be able to say thank you by making this donation."
Funds raised at the concert have been directed to the Cancer Immunololgy and Immunotherapy Centre (CIIC).
Pioneering new cancer research suggests it is our immune system which could help find a cure. CIIC exists to bring academics, scientists and clinical expertise together to collectively focus on developing internationally outstanding basic tumour immunology research, translating key discoveries into improvements in cancer treatments.
