The funeral procession of a much-loved doctor who died after contracting coronavirus will pass by his GP practice this morning.
Dr Saad Al-Dubbaisi, who worked at Garden City Medical Centre in Holcombe Brook, Bury, died at Salford Royal Hospital on Sunday.
The practice will be closed today to allow practice staff to show their respect to Dr Al-Dubbaisi and his family. The funeral procession will pass the practice at 11.30am this morning.
It is understood that the procession will also drive through Bury town centre. People who wish to attend are urged to maintain social distancing measures by keeping at least two metres between each other at all times.
