And also had a message from Elaine, because we publicised, didn't we, the Donnings Indoor Bowling Club last week on the programme. And she says, thanks, guys. I've listened. Absolutely brilliant. The events have passed our hopes with 125 people through the doors. I wonder how many of those came after listening to the Planet Reigate podcast.

All really surprised how technical the bowling was and how social the club was as well. Thanks. We love what you're doing over there. So really appreciate your comment as well. Thanks very much indeed for getting involved. Okay, this is the Planet Rygate podcast.

We're going to be hearing about that award-winning decluttering service. Well, they were granted an award, a grant, in other words. They were awarded a grant. Yes, they're award-winning, aren't they? Yeah, kind of. You know what I mean. And also we're going to be hearing more about what happened when BBC Radio 4's Any Questions came to the area last Friday.

And the person this end who helped put it all together. First of all, let's take a look at some of the news events which may have escaped your notice over the last seven days or so. East Surrey Hospital has been granted planning permission for a two-storey extension. Now this is exciting, isn't it? It's going to include two new operating theatres and a dental surgery as well.

So maybe that means that if you're waiting for some surgery, whether it be on your mouth or anywhere else in your body, it may be done a little bit sooner. But obviously they've got to knock down and rebuild first of all. But I don't know how long that's going to take. Six, eight months, something like that. I don't know, just off the top of my head.

I'm no builder and I'm not an architect either, as you probably realise. But that development we do know is going to fill the space between two wings at the hospital and help staff better cope with increasing demand that I just mentioned there. So the layout is going to be that the dental treatment area is going to be on the ground floor.

and then the operating theatres are going to be above that. They've been given planning permission by Reigate and Banstead Borough Council. You don't kind of think that's going to be the case, that the council gets involved with NHS on that huge kind of plot of land that the hospital's got there, but they did. That is their brief.

They were required to facilitate other urgent works within the hospital to meet growing patient demands. So that's why it was given the green light. And work's actually already started. They've begun doing the elementary and basic work there at the hospital. And what's going to happen is that the development's going to be connected.

If you can picture maybe some of the space that they're going to be taking over and building on, you may work there, you may have been there recently and thought, what's
