Every Princess needs a Prince Charming
. . . will you be ours?
Primrose at the Princess, the in-patient palliative
care unit located at the Princess of Wales Community
Hospital in Bromsgrove, is a partnership between
Primrose and Worcestershire Primary
Care Trust (PCT). Formally opened by the Duchess
of Gloucester in July 2004, the unit cares for
patients with cancer and other life limiting
illnesses from which they are unlikely to recover.
The short periods of specialised care help to
improve the quality of life for patients and
their families in Bromsgrove, Redditch and the
surrounding areas.
Primrose Hospice has committed to contributing
£100,000 annually towards the running
costs of the unit. This breaks down to £46.00
per day to care for each patient in each of
the 6 rooms in the bedded unit. This is in addition
to continuing to fund the Day Hospice at St
Godwalds Road and its support services.
We are seeking 'Prince Charmings' and 'Fairy
Godmothers' to help our Princess. By committing
to £4.00 per month by Standing Order,
you can become a Sharer of Care.
- You choose a date in the year which will
be your 'Sharer of Care date'. This could
be the anniversary of the loss of a loved
one, or their birthday or some other date
in the year that is special to you.
- In return you will receive a certificate
confirming your status as a Sharer of Care.
- And a thank you card as your Sharer of
Care date draws near.
- You will also receive an invitation to an
annual Sharer of Care event, where you can
meet fellow Sharers of Care.
Most of all - you receive the personal satisfaction
of knowing that you are contributing towards
the provision of a patient's care for one day
a year at Primrose at the Princess. With one
in three people likely to be diagnosed with
cancer at some point in their lives, it is good
to know that specialist care is available when
it's needed.
