"On behalf of my wife Rita, our sons Tom and Sam, and myself we just wanted to pass on our profound and deepest thanks for all those who have wished Rita a speedy recovery from the heart attack which she suffered at the Suffolk Pairs qualifying session at Needham on Sunday 27th Feb. This warm response is entirely typical of the bowls community and it has been a source of comfort and strength, so again, thanks very much. I am happy to report that the treatment at Papworth to insert a stent was successful and Rita was allowed home on Tuesday. She is understandably tired, but recovering.

We are acutely aware that without the prompt attendance and action by Mike, from the local Community First Responders Group, we would quite possibly have been looking at a different outcome. With this in mind and to express our gratitude we have set up a Just Giving appeal to raise funds to support the Needham Market & Claydon Community First Responders Group. There is an immediate need to fund a specialised type of smart phone with extremely precise location tracking so it would be great to raise enough to cover the cost to obtain and licence one of these for at least a year, and also provide some funds on top of this which could be used towards other equipment that the Group needs. We hope that you will support this worthwhile venture - all donations will be greatly appreciated whatever the size.

We look forward to meeting up with you all again at some point in the future so we can say thanks in person."

With grateful thanks
Pete, Rita, Tom and Sam Runnacles
