HOSPICE patients have a new multi-media computer to keep them entertained - but they need the DVDs and CDs to go with it.

St Catherine's Hospice, in Scarborough, bought the equipment thanks to a donation from AOL.

But there is not a single disc to play so staff have launched an appeal to help build up a collection to entertain people of all ages.

Director of support services Sandra Curtis said: "We want films, comedy, documentaries, everything for both adults and children.

"And on the music side, we'd love everything from the classics to pop."

Donations can be taken or sent to the hospice in Throxenby Lane, Scarborough, or left at any hospice shop. Any duplicates will be sold to raise funds for other equipment for the hospice.
