The Sikh community showed some real heart when it raised more than £25,000 for a new heart-monitoring machine at Ealing Hospital.
Ten people from the Pingalwara Charitable Society (PAC)
collectively cycled, ran and walked 1,000 miles over a month in recognition of
the National Health Service and its work during the Covid-19 pandemic.
It included PAC’s sure-footed president Jagraj Singh Sran who
walked up to five miles a day after work to meet his individual target of 100
miles.
Mr Sran said: “It’s the
least we could do for the NHS, especially in recent months when so many people
have been putting their own health on the line to help others. We all have a
responsibility to help one another.
“The NHS is always there for us, so we should be there for
the NHS.”
The cheque was presented to cardiologists Dr Harmandeep Singh
and Professor Jaspal Kooner and will be used to help treat the thousands of
people treated for heart conditions at the hospital ever year.
