Based on a stranger-than-fiction true story, WICKED LITTLE LETTERS follows two neighbours: deeply conservative local Edith Swan (Olivia Colman) and rowdy Irish migrant Rose Gooding (Jessie Buckley). When Edith and fellow residents begin to receive wicked letters full of unintentionally hilarious profanities, foul-mouthed Rose is charged with the crime. The anonymous letters prompt a national uproar, and a trial ensues. However, as the town’s women – led by Police Officer Gladys Moss (Anjana Vasan) – begin to investigate the crime themselves, they suspect that something is amiss, and Rose may not be the culprit after all.

Funds raised will go towards the $20,700 MOLECULIGHT we want to buy. This hand held imaging device uses violet light to detect bacteria in wounds. It’ll be used by our wound management practitioners in their day-to-day consultations and in our operating theatres, by our reconstruction teams, during grafting and flap surgeries. It’ll be the first MOLECULIGHT we’ve ever owned and we’re very excited.
