Carnival

At the end of November, Pamela Youde Nethersole Eastern Hospital (PYNEH) organised the 'PYNEH Day 2012 - Charity Walkathon & Healthy Life Carnival', which raised over HK$840,000 for the hospital's charitable trust. A number of colleagues joined other external performers to put on a fantastic stage show. The Carnival, which also included 37 booths offering fun games and items for charitable sale, and a walkathon that attracted about 1,200 participants, was greatly enjoyed by visitors alike.
