A £196,000 x-ray machine has been generously donated by the League of Friends of Stratton Hospital in memory of Candy Baker MBE, with installation work due to begin this week.

From Monday, February 14, work will get underway to install a new digital x-ray machine at Stratton Hospital.

While work to install the replacement equipment takes place, x-ray services will be limited at the hospital. The work is due to be completed by April 2022.
