East Midlands boss donates Easter treat to hospital children’s ward

Youngsters in the children’s ward at a Midlands hospital have enjoyed an egg-citing Easter surprise.

Leicestershire businessman Adrian Burr, chairman of Springbourne Homes, had the cracking idea of donating 30 Easter eggs.

Adrian hatched his egg-cellent plan to mark Springbourne’s 30th anniversary of building homes across Leicestershire and Warwickshire.

He said: “I want our landmark birthday celebrations to be a time when we give back to our local community.

“That’s why I’ve pledged that Springbourne will carry out 30 acts of kindness this year to celebrate our 30th anniversary.

“I know there’s never a good time to be in hospital but Easter must be tough, especially for the children.

“That’s why we wanted to bring in some eggs-tra treats to try to ensure those on the ward over the holidays were still able to join in the Easter celebrations.”

Sarah-Jayne Wetton, Ward Manager at Nuneaton’s George Eliot Hospital, certainly appreciated Springbourne’s kind gesture, saying: “A huge thank you to Adrian and Springbourne Homes for donating these Easter eggs.

“It’s a lovely gift for our young patients from Nuneaton, Bedworth and surrounding areas which is very much appreciated.”
