Send love to a loved one in hospital
You know your friends and family best, so help us help them!
Does your dad love reading? Ok, well we can get him a book. Does your stepmum enjoy music? Yes, then we will organise a radio for her. Is your friend really missing their dog? Well, how about we arrange a visit from one of our furry friends.Use the form below to send love to a loved one in the form of one of our free patient services. Hopefully our services can make a stay in hospital feel a little more comfortable.
What we can provide
- Activity kits made by our arts programme team, including various crafting and mindfulness activities such as drawing and knitting
- Support communicating regularly on the phone with a loved one
- Bespoke audio books that feature podcasts, music and stories
