Louie the Lion visits Hutt Hospital
Louie the Lion put smiles on many faces during a recent visit to Hutt Hospital as part of a Queensgate Shopping Centre initiative to provide some pre-Christmas cheer to children.
Louie handed out soft toys, puzzles and his new story book called Louie’s Big Adventure, which chronicles his travels throughout the region.
Queensgate engaged with the local community who voted on which locations Louie should visit while on his big adventure.
One of the lucky patients to get a book was nine-year-old Corbin Kelly.

Moe mai rā, Nicholas.
