AN EASTENDERS hard man proved that he has a decent bedside manner when he visited patients at the new Thames Hospice in Maidenhead.
Ross Kemp has been a supporter of the palliative care charity for a number of years and one of the reasons for visiting was to record a video which will form part of a festive service that the hospice will webcast this Sunday.
A spokesperson for Thames Hospice said: “Ross has been involved with the Hospice for a few years now, including supporting our Raise the Roof fundraising campaign last September 2019 to help us complete the build of the new hospice.
“He spent much of his visit meeting and chatting with our inpatients and their families. He really did brighten up so many lives here and injected a real buzz and excitement amongst our staff and volunteers.”
The Light Up A Life service will be streamed from 4pm on Sunday, December 13, and includes performances by Sue Holderness, Claudie Blakely and a tribute to Tim Brooke-Taylor by his friend and Goodies co-star Graeme Garden.
