Leicester Tigers players turned in to Easter Bunnies earlier this week to help spread some cheer among patients and staff at Spire Leicester Hospital, handing our chocolate eggs and meeting supporters who are spending the holiday in hospital this long-weekend.

George McGuigan, Afa Pakalani, Tom Brady and George Catchpole spent Wednesday afternoon walking the halls of the hospital in a bid to brighten the day of patients at the medical facility, as well as the hard-working staff who help to care for those in need.

While the playing group will be watching how many Easter Eggs they consume over the break, they were more than happy to hand them out as well as sign autographs, chat with supporters and pose for photographs on the mid-week visit.
