Chocolates and biscuits were distributed to staff and residents at Myton Hospice, as well as to patients in the wards of the Central England Rehabilitation Unit. In addition, children from the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community prepared and presented gifts for children admitted to the Children’s Ward at South Warwickshire University Hospital.Members of the wider local community were also supported through the Ahmadiyya Muslim Association Food Bank, based at Baitul Ehsan Mosque on Riverside, Adelaide Road, Leamington Spa. The Ladies’ Association further contributed by preparing hot meals for individuals benefiting from support through LWS Night Shelter.
