Sheringham based Eversley Mark Lodge chose to support their local hospital at Cromer and sought match funding from the East Anglian Mark Benevolent Association. The hospital has a wish list of equipment, which the Cromer Community and Hospital Friends look to fund through fundraising events and donations.
One item was a bariatric wheelchair, more heavy duty than the standard versions, costing just over £1,000. With help from the EAMBA, Eversley members were able to donate the full amount and presented the money in shirt sleeve order at the hospital fete. Funds were boosted further on the day, with lodge members taking part in the many stalls and games at the fete.
