Born to be brave
Proud parents Neil and Nicky Halford’s world was shattered when they said goodbye to their son Ben as he lost his long and brave battle against cancer.One moment Ben Halford was a normal, happy, gorgeous little boy, learning to walk and talk, exploring his world with delight and full of chuckles for his doting mum and dad, and the next, he was fighting for his life.
A touch of Hollywood arrives at the RUH’s Radiology Department
We are so pleased to have funded a specialised TV and DVD player costing £16,000 in one of the MRI scan rooms in the radiology department at the RUH Bath. This will allow patients to watch a movie while they have their scan.
We took along one of our patrons, Will Thorp, to check out the new equipment, which will help nervous patients, young and old, that are undergoing MRI examinations.

Will Thorp takes a look at our new MRI DVD Player
Check out this video of our amazing patron, actor Will Thorp taking a closer look at our new DVD system for the MRI scanner at the RUH Hospital.
The DVD player is highly specialised as it has to work in a strong magnetic field and not interfere with the electric signals being produced by the scanner.
