The group set the fundraising target last year and, despite a year in which fundraising was much reduced, the target was achieved and the donated equipment is now successfully installed and fully operational.
Karen Betts, clinical modality manager in radiology, said, “On behalf of the Radiology department I would like to say how extremely grateful we are for the donation from the Friends of Eastbourne Hospital which has enabled us to purchase a new digital DR x-ray room.

“We would also like to thank the Friends of Eastbourne hospital for their generosity in giving a further donation to purchase a second digital x-ray room and a digital mobile x-ray unit.”
