PLEASE support the Yeovil Express' FAST Appeal to raise £20,000 to help fund the buying of a new £65,000 scanner for Yeovil District Hospital in its work with osteoporosis.

Be under no doubt that the bone density unit at the hospital desperately needs the scanner if it is to continue their invaluable work and help the many local sufferers of osteoporosis.

Perhaps you, your work colleagues, your club or organisation would like to hold a fundraising event in aid of the FAST Appeal?

It could be a disco, a sponsored swim, a race night, a coffee morning - the list of events that could be held in aid of the FAST Appeal is never ending.

If you would like to help the Yeovil Express' FAST Appeal then please contact Yeovil District Hospital's corporate services director Mel Hillman on 01935-475122 or e-mail him at ask@est.nhs.uk who would be delighted to hear from you.

Alternatively you can phone the Yeovil Express on 01935-479811. We would be more than willing to give you publicity about any fundraising event you might be planning.

Remember. Your help will count in the relentless battle against osteoporosis.
