Throughout the pandemic, the Charity has been fortunate to have received several large donations and grants from the Captain Sir Tom Moore Fund (managed by NHS Charities Together), and this is how we used them: We created an outdoor/indoor area with a retracting awning and bistro style furniture. It’s been a great hit and our staff can relax and unwind, before and after shifts or during their breaks. Thanks to a private donor from Weybridge, the staff canteen was opened for an extra three hours each The relaxing area for our staff and volunteers at St. evening providing Peter’s Hospital free, hot, nutritious meals for our team during the first three weeks of the pandemic. The Tom Moore fund enabled this initiative to continue until the end of May 2020. • Patients were given newspapers and iPads, keeping them in touch with their loved ones and the outside world.
