Thankful Friday Wk 4 (8/5/20)
Yet again, we would like to say a huge thank you to those who have supported us over the whole of this unique period. Your acts of kindness are boosting morale and helping to keep stress levels down for those who are working hard on the front line.
Gifts in kind
This week we would like to say a huge thank you to the following, for donating gifts in kind that mean so much:
- Gems at work for donating Chewing gum & masses of Galaxy Vegan Chocolate for our staff members
- Local resident Sue for donating hand-made washable uniform bags
- John Lewis for donating care packages to our Large Joints Secretarial Team
- Vitabiotics for donating vitamin D support to staff members

Donations:
A huge thank you goes out to NHS Charities Together and everyone who has contributed to their COVID-19 appeal, as well as Alleyn’s school who donated a huge £10,000 to us. These donations have enabled us to give so much more support to Patients and Staff during this time.
This week Staff Wellbeing packs were distributed to all working within the trust to say thank you. Included was lots of goodies, vouchers for our café as well as supportive information.
Well-being packs given to staff members throughout the organisation
