During lockdown HER Breast Friends have continued to support those in need, where we can. This includes delivering our Patient Gift Packs to the hospitals, which are then given by the nurses and staff, to those undergoing surgery for breast cancer.
Our free gift packs contain a selection of toiletries and the Charity Information Booklet plus our heart shaped cushion and stress buster Dammit Doll, all lovingly made by our volunteers. They also let people know that they are not alone, and we are here for them.
One lady, who has recently received one of our packs told us:
“I have just come out of the hospital after having had a mastectomy. They [nurse] gave me one of your bags. Thank you so much for such a lovely gift and so useful. I had no idea that people like you existed, it is humbling”.
Our Patient Gift Packs are just one of the ways your donations and fundraising helps the Charity to support those affected by breast cancer … thank you 😘x
