To help those struggling with their mental health, the team chose to fundraise for Mind in Rushden, donating £10 for every review received from a patient – aiming to raise £1,000 by the end of 2021.

Dr Patel said: “It has been a pleasure to be able to contribute to a charity which is so supportive and important to many residents of Rushden and the surrounding areas.

“The charity was chosen by our team members as we have all been affected in some way over the past couple of years - Mind has been a great support for many people.

“We would like to thank our patients for helping us reach this goal and hope the money raised will be able to help those in need of their services.”
