We welcomed Milo, a therapy Labrador, and his owner Paul to our Street Café to meet David, 89, who once shared his life with four Labradors. With support from our volunteer team and David’s family, he enjoyed a heartwarming visit with Milo. Thanks to Brian Russell for the photos.

We are delighted to have two new cuddle beds, enabling patients to get closer to loved ones.

The large adjustable medical beds were funded by Helen Stenlake, the Rotherwick Foundation, Hobson Charity, the Fitton Trust and an anonymous donor.
