With over 360 patients being seen at any one time, our nurses’ caseloads have increased by more than 40% since the pandemic began. Your Get Together could do the world of good in the following ways:

- £35 could sponsor a Healthcare Assistant caring for our patients during the day on our ward for two hours
- £350 could sponsor 10 hours of visiting time for a Clinical Nurse Specialist to support patients at home
- £350 could able us to provide over 100 nutritious and delicious meals for patients.
- £3500 could pay for 3 syringe drivers, to give continuous, effective pain relief medicine to patients to manage their symptoms
- £3500 could pay for 6 days of care on our ward for one patient
