PCN fundraises for Trust’s Dementia Unit
A fundraising event to raise awareness brought in a grand total of £1,843 for The Royal Wolverhampton NHS Trust’s (RWT) Dementia Unit.
Members of the public were invited to Warstones Surgery to take part in a range of fun activities to help raise money for the worthy cause.
The event saw an array of delicious homemade and shop-bought cakes and samosas alongside craft stalls, raffles and local business stands, with staff volunteering their time at the weekend to encourage donations.
Hayleigh Griffiths, Assistant Practice Manager at Warstones Surgery, said: “Dementia is very close to our hearts here at the practice, whether it’s affected family members or our very own patients, we wanted to try and make a difference to the care and treatment they receive.
“We would also like to say a huge thank you to all of the local companies that donated raffle prizes and refreshments as well as those who donated on the day.”
Money raised will contribute to enhancing the experiences of patients and their families within the Dementia Unit at New Cross Hospital via The Royal Wolverhampton NHS Trust Charity.
Amanda Winwood, RWT Charity Development Manager, added: “Thank you to Warstones Surgery colleagues for putting on such a successful event, and giving up their own time to support it. They raised a fantastic amount which will be used to make a difference to our patients.”
