Derian House community fund-raiser John Rullo, who devised the project with support from students at the Technical College at Media City, Salford, said: “Our Derian Dreams Bedtime Story Collection is already proving popular with families whose children enjoy the fun stories and humour and we’re sure Booths customers will love them, too.
“We’re delighted that Booths have offered to stock our CDs whose sale help us towards our fund-raising target of £3.75m this year to ensure we continue to provide the high standard of care to families from across the North West, as well as on-going bereavement.
“Booths is a family-run business with a reputation for excellence – values we can relate to at Derian where we are devoted to caring for our families and always strive to do the very best we can for them.”
