I WOULD like, through your pages, to express our heartfelt thanks to the very kind couple who came to my husband's aid when he tripped up a kerb and fell in the Stourbridge Road car park in Bromsgrove on September 30.

They took him to the Princess of Wales minor injuries unit, where he was treated for cuts to his face and hand.

That was very kind, but they also waited while he was treated and insisted on driving him home afterwards (about 3.5 miles from Bromsgrove), as he was not in a fit state to drive his own car.

We have no idea who this couple are, but very much hope they will see this letter and know how very grateful we both are to them.

Thank you so very much - your kindness reinforces our belief in the best of human nature.
