St Elizabeth Hospice has recently landed itself donations totalling an amazing £1,353 from a Woodbridge residents love of trout fishing.

Grant Coleman, 91, has been fishing since he was six years old and over the years he has caught more fish than he has known what to do with. After gutting them and having them smoked at Orfords smoke house, he has been giving fish away to family and friends in exchange for a donation for the Hospice.

Mr Coleman, a member of the Suffolk Fly Fishers Club, commented, "I will be 92 on my next birthday and therefore I have reluctantly decided that gutting my own trout is no longer an option. I would encourage any fisherman that has any spare fish to follow my lead and give them away in exchange for a small donation for the Hospice."
