Solihull Hospital radiographers swapped x-rays for running shoes this week to raise money for Cancer Research UK. The ladies, re-named the ‘X-Racers’, took part in the Race for Life event at Bruton Park, and raised an impressive £400 for the charity.
Karen Sanford, lead mammographer at the Hospital, said:
“It was pretty hard work to complete the full 5 kilometres in very hot weather, but we kept thinking about the cause and the patients and relatives we know who are affected by these diseases, and that kept us going.
So many of us know incredibly brave patients and relatives, and what they have to go through. We are honoured to support them in whatever way we can.”
