Rory rides to hospital's rescue

A New Haw aquatics centre staff member will deep clean a 5ft fish tank on a children's ward at St Peter's Hospital on July 16.

Rory Kingerley, 24, a sales assistant from Maindenhead Aquatics in New Haw Road, is preparing to take on the grimy tank so that children will have something nice to look at.

He reckons the job will take about three hours, adding: "Fish tanks are for looking at, it's not nice to look at a brown one. It's about giving the kids something nice to see when they go into hospital."

One of his customers, Byfleet mum-of-two Linda Futcher, suggested he clean the tank as a favour to the hospital. She said: "I think it's really nice of him to sort it out."
