Equipment and supplies from one Greater Manchester Hospital are being sent to Ukraine to help provide urgent medical aid. More than 100 devices, worth almost £80,000 are being donated to the war zone as the conflict rages on, and casualties pile up.
The vital medical equipment being sent by the Royal Bolton Hospital includes patient monitors, feeding pumps and syringe drivers which can be used to manage symptoms such as pain and nausea.
The package was collected on Friday morning by Medical Aid Ukraine North West, before travelling nearly 1,500 miles to Ukraine, where it will be distributed to treat people.
