Julia and Hattie, along with other members of the Palliative Care Team and wider hospital are hoping to raise money towards this important project. Hopefully other members of staff and the public will join us to run the Colchester 10K.

Meet the team so far.

Dr Julia Thompson, Dr Hattie Roebuck, Lea Kirton CNS, Katie Worby CNS, Ros Gormer CNS, Bev Pickett, End of Life Care Facilitator, Beth Keeble, End of Life Clinical Skills Nurse (all from Palliative Care Team), Debbie Smart, lead pharmacy technician, Karen Hobbs, Breast Care CNS, Becky Evans, hospice nurse, Sally Thorpe CNS from Ipswich, Michelle Biggins, Nurse Lead for Clinical Audit, Dr Angela Tillett, Medical Director and Paediatrician.

Chappel Primary School parents are also running and include Lucy Carabine, Helen Cottage, Sandra Hipgrave, Gemma King, Julia Prestney, Lucy Ferrier, Bev Pickett and Julia Thompson.

We have other runners supporting us including, Ann Hird, Caroline Mence, Steven Mence, Melanie Traynor and Kate Finch.

We feel that The Time Garden will be a quiet and relaxing space in which dying patients and their families can spend time away from the busy hospital environment.
