Local stores’ vision leads to free TV for Friends of the Cancer Centre patients

Eleven local EUROSPAR supermarkets have dug deep and raised funds to help install 30 TVs in the Friends of the Cancer Centre Unit at Belfast City Hospital.

Chris Hamilton who works at Henderson Retail received treatment at the unit in 2019 and after having to pay to watch TV, he thought how beneficial it would be for patients to have access to entertainment without the pain of paying for subscriptions.

Appealing to his colleagues from across County Down and East Belfast, almost £4,000 was raised which went towards helping purchase 30 TVs for the Friends of the Cancer Centre Unit.
