Car dealer helps hospital beat the blizzards
Sheffield-based Land Rover dealer Guy Salmon is loaning the 4x4 Discovery to The Rotherham NHS Foundation Trust for the eighth consecutive year.

Chris Tobin, head of estates services, said: “We’re extremely grateful to Guy Salmon for providing us with a Land Rover for the eighth year.
“It really is a valuable asset during the winter months and helps us keep our services running and ensure our hospital grounds are safe for patients, visitors and colleagues.”
He added: “Having the Land Rover available during the winter months is also reassuring because it means we have a reliable, alternative way of getting key colleagues into work if no other methods of transport are available.”
