A solicitors company has chosen to support a fundraising appeal to provide excellence in care to the elderly by donating £1,000.

The EDP and Queen Elizabeth Hospital in King's Lynn have teamed up to launch the Excel Appeal, which aims to enable the

hospital to buy specialist dementia software, a falls prevention kit, and adaptable chairs.

King's Lynn firm Kenneth Bush Solicitors has chosen to support the ExCel Appeal and has presented the hospital with a cheque for £1,000.

The company will continue to support the appeal throughout 2016.

Paul Croker, a partner at the company, said: 'We recognise the importance of supporting the hospital in their commitment and

determination to provide an outstanding quality of service for those entering the later years of their lives.

He said he wanted to thank the staff, clients, and members of the public who had already donated money.

Laurence Morlaàs, fundraising manager at Queen Elizabeth Hospital, said: 'We are excited at the prospect of working with

Kenneth Bush Solicitors on a number of fundraising initiatives.'
