This valuable training facility concentrates on training surgeons on the principles of laparoscopic surgery.

We donated a range of brand new surgical and suturing equipment allowing NUGITS to practice with the finest instruments in hand. The equipment included scissors and needle holders to perfect suturing techniques.

Liam Horgan, Consultant General Surgeon, wrote to us personally to thank for us for the donation stating, “We are delighted that you have been able to support us in our endeavours and your generous donation is much appreciated”.

Lillian Broatch, Theatre Education Manager, also commented on our donation, “On behalf of the NUGITS facility members, we are grateful for the support from Timesco with providing this valuable training resource”.
