LONDON, ONT. It almost didn’t happen because of COVID-19 restrictions, but hundreds of long-term care patients at four hospitals in southern Ontario, including London and Strathroy, will get Christmas gifts thanks to an unlikely benefactor. The Angel Project, an Ontario-based charity, made a stop at Parkwood Institute Wednesday to deliver Christmas gifts for 30 patients. “They don’t have money or the financial resources,” said volunteer director and secretary/treasurer Dave Houghton. “Some of these people don’t have families. It’s just a simple gift for them, and the staff that you saw taking them in will deliver them Christmas morning.”
