Barry Pook won £1,000 in a hospital charity lottery, using it to stay connected with his mother during her care and buy pet birds for joy.
Barry Pook, 54, of Burnham-on-Sea, won £1,000 in the Bristol and Weston Hospitals Charity lottery, a prize he used to replace his phone for staying connected with his mother during her hospital care and to buy two budgies named Primrose and another bird, which now bring him joy.
He entered the lottery after witnessing dedicated care at Bristol Royal Infirmary, where his mother received treatment, and appreciated the charity’s free hospital bus service.
His mother is now recovering well, and Pook said the win brought unexpected comfort.
The charity highlighted that every ticket supports patients, families, and staff.
