Whitchurch 41 Club members presented the cheque to representatives from the Bradbury Care Centre recently.

Malcolm, a past president of Whitchurch 41 Club, said: "We are very pleased to be able to assist in this installation and enable the fantastic team at Bradbury to maintain their exceptional service to local people."

Bradbury Care Centre is located next door to the Whitchurch Community Hospital, in Claypit Street and is a place for the elderly, people with disabilities and those with physical and mental frailty to have an opportunity to attend a day service.

It is open five days a week, and alongside its support for those with dementia, offers professional care, a range of activities and entertainment, as well as advice clinics, GP and district nurse visits and hot meals.

People can also take part in drop-in lunches, use the hydrotherapy pool, visit the hairdressers, get the laundry done and have a bath.
