A HOSPITAL charity now has an online presence.

The Friends of Airedale Hospital have launched a website – FriendsofAiredale.co.uk – featuring news and information, volunteering opportunities, a donation facility and contact pages.

Marketing company Puddle Agency donated the site.

The company was thanked by Friends chairman, John Lofthouse.

Steven Burles, Puddle’s chief executive officer, said: “It was a pleasure to help with the website.

“Airedale is the local hospital for many of us at Puddle. Friends and family have been treated there and some even born at the site.

“The Friends of Airedale do fantastic work and make a real difference for patients and staff.

“The fundraising they carry out has provided equipment that is used on a daily basis.

“We were pleased to have the opportunity to give back to the hardworking volunteers who keep this charity going.”

The Friends would like to hear from anyone interested in volunteering to give ongoing help with the website or the charity’s social media presence.
