WATFORD'S MP Claire Ward opened a new warehouse for Sigma pharmaceutical distributors in Imperial Way, Watford, on Thursday, April 24.

At the opening, Mr Bharat Shah, managing director of Sigma, announced that a donation of £1,000 contributed by Sigma staff, would be given to Claire Ward to give to Watford General Hospital, for equipment needed in the maternity/paediatric wards.

Miss Ward was joined by former president of the Royal Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain, Mr Hemant Patel, who announced that medicines worth more than £100,000 donated by Sigma were being sent to the Princess Margaret Hospital in the Commonwealth of Dominica.
