Good Samaritans

I WOULD like to say a big thankyou for the kindness of strangers who helped me after I had a nasty fall at the Arena shopping centre yesterday morning.
In particular the pharmacy staff who dressed my wounds, the chicken shop staff who provided the frozen peas ice pack and the out-of-towners from Priceline who assisted in getting me to a waiting car for the trip to hospital.
I’m recovering OK but wanted to recognise your kindness publicly.
Tania Baxter,
Beaconsfield.
