AUTUMN MEETING 16th OCTOBER
Good afternoon everyone - I am pleased to announce that we will be having a presentation from a senior member of The Phyllis Tuckwell Hospice at 8pm on the 16th of October at our Autumn Meeting at St. Francis Church Hall 2 Three Stiles Rd, Farnham GU9 7DE
The NWFRA Committee felt that this is a very worthy cause and we do hope that you will be able to attend.
The presentation will follow an update on local matters of interest from the Committee, after which refreshments will be served.
The following topics will be covered:
A brief history of Phyllis Tuckwell
- Explanation of the three services that they offer and that they are not just an In-Patient Unit. What the services are, what professionals are involved and how they operate
- The messaging and misconception on what a Hospice is
- How the community supports them to fundraise and the ways to get involved
- Sharing an understanding of the support they give to patients and their families
- Update on the progress of their new building
After which the audience will be able to ask questions of the speaker.
Since they are reliant on the generosity of the general public, cash donations would be most welcome on the evening, enabling them to continue their excellent work.
Looking forward to seeing you there - I am sure that it will be a most enjoyable evening
Best Wishes
Dave King
