After the pilot tea party held in Sept 2014, the Senior Charge Nurse, on that ward immediately requested that the tea parties become monthly events for 2 of his wards, funded from their patient funds, saying, 'I have not seen a better way of using that money'¦the tea party had such an impact for patients I am really glad to be able to commit to it continuing in this way.'
Two years later Elevate now delivers monthly tea parties on 3 wards, serving approximately 100 patients per month, with funding support from the Stars Appeal,
Salisbury Hospital's Charitable Trust.
