Warragul Lions Club has again shown its support the West Gippsland Hospital with a donation to buy new equipment.
The club's latest donation has funded the purchase of a new linen storage trolley for use by nurses in the oncology unit.
It follows a donation by the Lions several months ago that enabled the hospital to buy the top priority for this year's equipment appeal, a $51,000 ventilator.
Lions members president Jeff Tolley, Phil Rossiter and Marty Christian visited the hospital to meet some of the staff and see the use its latest purchase is being put to.
