Charity delivers chocolate hampers for Nurses Week
Team members from QEHB Charity were kept very busy last week delivering special chocolate hampers to every hospital ward at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham to celebrate Nurses Week.
The week also saw Nurses from the QE tackling an endurance challenge to raise money for patients. Nurses cycled 1,704 miles – the distance from Birmingham to Crimea – across two days, raising a whopping £3,000.
Following on from Nurses Week, QEHB Charity team members will also be visiting the hospital wards as part of a new initiative to hear directly from the staff, nurses and doctors – the people on the ground – if there is anything we can do to help them and their patients.
Each QEHB Charity team member will represent specific wards, feeding back to the rest of the charity team about how we can ensure your donation helps make a real difference.
