At our WI meeting this evening someone mentioned that there had been an item on Women’s Hour about staff working in ITU and similar departments. They interviewed a nurse who talked about the levels of exhaustion and how staff feel less appreciated then they had done during the first lockdown.
Are these feelings felt by you too?
What would help you?
Our WI would like to do something to help if we can. We thought about baking cakes, but suspect home made products wouldn’t be able to be accepted in these days of H&S and food safety. Which made us think of buying treats from somewhere to send in, is that something that is acceptable or possible to do? What sort of things would be liked? Is there something else we could do? We feel that a donation of money would somehow not get through to the troops if you see what I mean unless there is a particular way of doing it so that it does get through to the right people.
Our local hospital taking covid patients is the Goucester Royal and this is likely to be where we would direct our donation of whatever it ends up being. Do you know who would be the right person to contact regarding this?
Many thanks for any replies. I suspect once our WI gets the ball rolling with this other WI’s round the county will join in. You are all doing such a fantastic job and deserve much more then just our thanks
