Hi Everyone, thanks for listening. In this episode I talk about what I have been up to last week , preview the next guests and highlight a job seeker.
Then I announce a charity partnership between Get out of Wrap and Naomi House/ Jacksplace.
Naomi House & Jacksplace hospices provide expert hospice care to more than 525 life limited and life threatened children, young adults and their extended families from Hampshire, Wiltshire, Dorset, Berkshire, West Sussex, Surrey and the Isle of Wight.
When a child or young adult is diagnosed with a life limiting condition, Naomi House & Jacksplace becomes their home from home.
Their teams take the time to really get to know the family and fully understand their wishes. We offer them vital respite support, giving them the chance to recharge their batteries and regroup in a calm, fun and welcoming environment. In times of emergency Naomi House & Jacksplace is there, giving families the help they need through difficult times. And at the end of a child or young adult's life, we pull out all the stops to give them a peaceful and dignified end, surrounded by family members.
This standard of care costs money; £9.2 million per year to be precise. With less than 11% of income coming from Government and statutory sources, Naomi House & Jacksplace is reliant on the support of people like you.
I am raising money for the charity and asking my guests who come on to make a small contribution too - if you'd like to support this charity please go to https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/getoutofwrap-martin-teasdale
Thanks
