Donation to Neonatal unit

An Arbroath family has donated money to the neonatal unit in Ninewells Hospital in memory of Margaret McCann.

Margaret’s husband Peter and youngest son Robert visited Ninewells Hospital neonatal unit to donate £728. Her oldest son David was unable to be there as he lives in Oklahoma.

The money was raised by family and friends who kindly donated money at Margaret’s funeral after she sadly passed away.

The family chose to donate the money to the neonatal unit as Robert spent two weeks there when he was born.

Accepting the cheque senior charge nurse, Alison Findlay said, “Thank you to Peter and his family for their kind and generous donation particularly at such a sad time.

“It was very thoughtful that they should think of us. Their generous donation will help us purchase items to support and add comfort for our babies and their families during their stay.”
