Fruit cocktails still in the mix on Ribblesdale Ward
The foundation agreed to pay £35 per month for the next 12 months to fund the fruit used to make both them and the range of fruit canapes which are served with them.
Staff working in the Royal Preston Hospital’s catering department make and deliver the fruity creations to the ward for serving by housekeeping staff.

“It’s a simple little highlight that means a lot to patients and their families.
“We all want to see the tradition continue into the future and are very grateful to Rosemere Cancer Foundation and all its supporters for helping to keep it going.”
