The N&N will be shining bright this December as twinkling displays of snowflakes illuminate the outside of the hospital.

This is the second year the hospital will have a display of 30 sparkling snowflakes on the front of the building and around the plaza and thanks to the generosity of businesses, the N&N Hospitals Charity will also benefit.

SERCO, AA Waste, Brewers, Carters, Check Your Security, Hicks, Shred Station, Hutchings, and Munro have all contributed to make this spectacle possible this year.

It is hoped the lights will provide Christmas cheer to patients, staff and members of the public alike and will be switched on during the hospital’s Christmas Fair on Thursday December 5 from 4pm-8pm, with the official switch on at 5pm.

Louise Cook, head of fundraising at the hospital, said: “This idea has been used by other hospitals in the country to support their hospital charities and we hope that Norfolk businesses will continue to embrace this in years to come.

“We hope that this year’s display will be enjoyed by everyone visiting the hospital, and will raise money for the charity which in turn is used to benefit patients, staff and visitors.”
