We would like to take this opportunity to thank our patients and staff who have purchased 'used books' that are available in our waiting room. In total we raised £155.00. £55.00 was donated to Adur Stroke Club and £100 was donated to the "As You Are charity which is a counselling service based at The Corner House in Southwick. Both organisations were extremely grateful.

We continue to supply reading books in our waiting room and all monies received will be donated local charities.
