Thanks for visiting the amazing #TeamSands-IsleofWight team's fundraising page raising money in support of the St Mary's Hospital Bereavement Room.
St Mary’s Hospital on the Isle of Wight is the only hospital on the island. We are extremely fortunate to have a dedicated bereavement room there. Families use this room to give birth and spend time with their baby afterwards, providing a calm, safe environment. Now, the room needs some gentle care and refurbishment itself. Isle of Wight Sands is supporting this refurbishment and wish to purchase some key items to make the stay of any family in this bereavement room as comfortable as possible. This will include a new double rather than single bed, nice bedding, appropriate and comfortable furniture, a new radio, toiletries and a discrete sign for the door. The area outside the room will benefit from a screen for added privacy when in use.
#TeamSands-IsleofWight are absolutely committed to raising the money needed for this really important project. You'll see our team fundraising target on the right. Your kind donation, however small, can really help and will make such a difference to the lives of the families who use the facilities at St Mary’s Hospital. Thank you so much.
All the funds raised will be designated for the purpose of Isle of Wight Sands St Mary’s Hospital Bereavement Room Refurbishment Project. Once this project is fully funded and it’s £2,500 target reached, any excess will be spent where the need is greatest, helping Sands to continue to deliver its vital services to support anyone affected by the death of a baby, to improve the bereavement care received by parents and families, and to promote research to reduce the number of babies dying.
Remember: Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never share them with anyone or send you unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. They'll make sure Gift Aid (an additional 25%) is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer, too. That means more money goes to the charity, faster, with JustGiving.
