A GROUP of stroke survivors and their families have enjoyed a peaceful canal trip hosted by Bromsgrove Lions Club.
Two trips, which were jointly hosted by Anglo Welsh Waterway Holidays and Bromsgrove Lions Club saw the groups travelling to Alvechurch and back.
Pat Fletcher of Bromsgrove Lions Club said: "Thanks to Anglo Welsh, we were delighted to once again be able to offer stroke survivors and their carers a canal boat trip on Anglo Welsh’s Day boat Emma.
“A stroke can have a huge impact on someone’s life, and this group really demonstrates how well they are able to combat the effects through mutual support.”
Matt Lucas Stern, operations manager for Anglo Welsh, said: “We were delighted to again be able to offer our day boat Emma to Bromsgrove Lions Club so that they could take this group of stroke survivors from the Bromsgrove area out for another special day together on the canal.”
