Thank you to Bourne Water Dragons for making 20 gift bags for Christmas day which were given out by the one and only, Father Christmas!

A special thanks go to the following ladies who brought all the lovely gift bags to the unit: Hilary Coleman, Christine Bailey and Valerie Kelly (shown in our glallery section, below)

Here are a few comments from some of the team:

People were so generous…..you just have to reach out and people love to respond. Thank you all. Valerie Kelly

It was a pleasure.

It was a privilege for my Val and me to contribute and help - David Buckland

It was our pleasure to donate these goodie bags these patients so deserve them. We also managed to make 10 bags for the Forest Holme Hospice in Poole and another 20 bags distributed between the salvation and shelter. So 50 goodies bags in all given out in times of need. I am so proud of all the water dragons who helped make this happen.
