Projects Update

Paediatric Ward

We are delighted to announce that the Paediatric Ward refurbishment is now complete. The addition of the bespoke daybeds was the ward’s finishing touch, and we are thrilled this light, bright and purpose-built room is now available to our paediatric patients. Thank you to our donors whose support from the beginning of this project, especially during the di culties of last year, was inspiring. The successful completion of this project is a testament to the community’s continued, generous support of St Andrew’s.

Save the Date – Pink & Blue Swim/Walk 2022

Next year’s Pink & Blue Swim/ Walk will be held on Saturday 12 of February 2022. This is the event’s 10th anniversary and the last to be held in the West Beach Surf Life Saving Club’s existing club rooms. Over the nine events, this great community event has raised more than $325,000 towards both Breast Care Services at St Andrew’s Hospital and the Prostate Cancer Foundation, and hosted over 5,000 participants. A magnificent e ort! Funds received from the 2021 event will enable the hospital to refurbish the 3rd Floor Patient and Visitor kitchen/lounge area, benefiting not only our breast cancer patients but also our prostate cancer patients as they are admitted to the hospital. Note the date in your diary, and come along and support the amazing crew at the West Beach Surf Life Saving Club and their fantastic fundraising e orts for Breast Care Services at St Andrew’s.

National Volunteers Week – 17 to 23 May, 2021

This year, we celebrated National Volunteers Week with a movie afternoon at the Regal Theatre on Wednesday, 19 May, 2021. Our CEO, Stephen Walker, welcomed the group and helped present Years of Service certificates to our volunteers who had recently reached significant milestones. Volunteer Coordinator Valerie Turnbull, worked hard to organise a fantastic COVID safe event. Those who attended enjoyed individual grazing boxes, Ja ers and a beverage whilst relaxing and enjoying an afternoon viewing of June Again. Volunteers are truly an important part of our St Andrew’s Foundation community. We welcome seeing their friendly faces in the co ee shop and around the hospital, and we thank them for the vital role they play.
