Helene sent us the picture above and a message to say thank you. This is how your donations & gifting your time contribute to making a difference in the lives of those diagnosed with cancer in hospital.
When you are in hospital, small acts of kindness mean the world to the recipient.
They know they are cared about and someone took the time to think of them.
We love that The Lewis Foundation provides an opportunity to build a network of support to help others.
