Health workers on a covid ward at West Midddlesex University Hospital received a caffeinated boost this week thanks to generous donations from the Twickenham community.

Residents generously gave £970 in just 24 hours after Dr Paul Chapman's bike was stolen from Twickenham Green.

The fundraising page more than bought the 31-year-old junior doctor a new bicycle and even left money to spare.

Dr Chapman spent the rest on a new coffee machine, a set of colourful mugs and countless coffee pods for his delighted colleagues.

His partner Michelle Keaveney shared the news.

"Just a follow up from NHS doctor who had his bike stolen," she said.
