For most of us, Christmas Day is a time to be surrounded by family, friends and the comforts of home. Sadly, every year, hundreds of patients spend the festive season on the wards at West Suffolk Hospital and Newmarket Community Hospital.
With your support, we can make sure that every patient receives a special gift to open on Christmas Day. A small act of kindness can make an enormous difference to someone facing illness, uncertainty, or loneliness during what should be a joyful time of year.
Being in hospital at Christmas can be incredibly difficult for patients and their loved ones. A simple gift can provide comfort, bring a smile, and remind patients that their community is thinking of them.
One family shared their experience:
“I am very grateful to My WiSH for organising the wonderful Christmas gifts with the visit from Father Christmas at West Suffolk Hospital. This visit provided us with a moment of joy on Christmas Day during what was a very difficult time for us, with Mum being in hospital having had a stroke in December and very sadly passing away in January. My thanks go to the whole team at My WiSH for being so thoughtful and kind.”
This is why we continue to deliver Christmas gifts to patients every year.
Each gift costs approximately £6 and is carefully chosen to bring comfort and festive cheer.
Your donation could help provide:
Not only do these gifts brighten a patient’s day, they also create special moments for the dedicated NHS staff who deliver them, helping spread warmth and kindness across the hospital on Christmas Day.
No one chooses to spend Christmas in hospital. Together, we can ensure patients receive a thoughtful gift and know they are not forgotten.
Please donate today and help us bring comfort, joy and festive cheer to patients across the West Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust this Christmas.
