Together with our supporters, Barts Charity is there for patients and families in East London – through it all. We support pioneering research and the wellbeing of our brilliant NHS staff. We help to refurbish wards and provide Barts Health hospitals with the very best equipment.

Story

Doris was our Mum, Daughter, Sister, Friend, and inspiration. On 4 January 2010, she passed away peacefully after a long struggle with cancer.

In the last few years, she had spent a lot of time in the Bodley Scott 2 ward of St Barts Hospital in London. She always received wonderful care and attention from everyone with whom she came into contact. As a family, we were given assistance in making things easier for her - patient explanations of what was happening, food (smoked salmon and champagne on Christmas Day!) and consolation during difficult times.

Doris's only complaint was the lukewarm tea from the machine in the day room. So in her memory, the most fitting tribute we can give is better tea for the patients and visitors. For this reason, we asking you to give donations instead of flowers and all the money will go directly to Bodley Scott 2.

We've used JustGiving because it makes things a little easier to organise (and Doris loved being organised!) If you prefer to pay by cheque, visit Barts and the London Charity donate page.

If you donate here, please leave a funny story to include in the book about Doris we are going to make for her most treasured possessions - her grandchildren.
