Chocolate eggs brighten children's Easter at Ysbyty Gwynedd
Lock Stock Self-Storage delivered a consignment of seven dozen chocolate treats in time for the celebration.
Area site manager for north west Wales, Lee Hanson, called in at the hospital to hand over the delivery and had a warm welcome from staff on the children's ward.
Carina Roberts, play specialist and charity champion, who has worked on the children's wards at Ysbyty Gwynedd for 27 years, said: 'We're really grateful to Lock Stock for this generous donation to the wards which can cater for up to 100 children at any one time.
'We share them out among the children we have here and any that are left over we will take down to Accident and Emergency to share them with young people there.
'The two wards here cater for children from all over Gwynedd, Anglesey and Conwy and it's lovely for them to receive Easter Eggs.

'I've worked on the wards here for a long time and it's something I really enjoy. It's very satisfying.'
Lee Hanson said: "You never want to see children in hospital but hopefully an Easter Egg can help cheer them up at a difficult time for them and their families.
'The staff here do a fantastic job and we're just glad we can do something to hopefully bring a smile to the faces of their patients and their families.
'As a business we like to support charities and good causes in the areas in which we operate and to put something back into those communities so we're delighted if we have been able to do something to cheer up the children in the wards here.'
Lock Stock, founded in Denbigh in 1999, has three sites in Bangor and other sites in Caernarfon, Porthmadog, Holyhead and Llandudno.
