LAWRENCE HOME NURSING TEAM

THANK YOU to all those in Chipping Norton and the surrounding area who have been so generous in their support of the Lawrence Home Nursing Team. To date 218 terminally ill patients have benefited from the specialist palliative care that the team provides.

 

This care is provided at no cost to the patient and is funded solely through donations. The LHNT Support Group is keen to encourage people in the area to run local fundraising events. If you wish to organise an event please do so! Please contact the LHNT Fundraising Co-ordinator Nikki Knott  ( or by email at ) to inform her of the date of the event so that it can be posted on our website; some publicity material is also available.  In addition the LHNT Support Group is seeking to compile a list of people who would be willing to help with fundraising events by baking cakes, selling Christmas cards, putting up posters and so on. If you would be willing for your name to be added to this list of LHNT helpers please contact Lesley Stobart on , or by email at .

 

The demand for nursing care continues to be high. Donations should be sent to Robin Coates , LHNT Financial Administrator at Dunthrop House, Heythrop, Chipping Norton, OX7 5TJ, or donate online at  www.justgiving.com. Our funds come from: gifts, legacies, sponsorship, donations from trusts and businesses and fund-raising activities by local groups and individuals.
