Jo Stevens, a patient has raised £18,000 for MARS Doctors after being treated by Dr Malcolm Russell following a horrific accident.

Four pedestrians were hurt after a bus driver collapsed and died at the wheel and his vehicle ploughed into them in Ludlow. After mounting the pavement, the town service bus knocked over four women, two of whom were seriously hurt. Witnesses described hearing a loud bang as the bus smashed into the hotel at about 5.25pm. Emergency services were called, but the driver could not be saved and was declared dead at the scene. The four women were taken to the Royal Shrewsbury Hospital but none of them is believed to have suffered life-threatening injuries.

A Bridgnorth woman, who asked not to be named, was drinking in the Feathers at the time of the collision. She said she heard “an almighty bang” as she sat down. “We ran to look outside and a bus had crashed into the side of the building,” she said. “One girl was definitely stuck under the bus and three others were run over.
