I would like to thank the good and kind people of Bury when my sister collapsed on Thursday last week near the Mill Gate.

The public were stopping to ask if they could help in anyway.

My sister had a hip replacement which had dislocated and I had to hold on to her for 35 minutes until the ambulance arrived.

Special thanks to the staff at the Motability shop and Move On estate agents where they came out with chairs etc.

The people could not do enough and we cannot thank them enough.

So nice to see such community spirit — the people involved and the passers by were marvellous.
