OUR CORPORATE SUPPORTER - SCOTT BADER MAKING A DIFFERENCE
A huge thank you to one of our long-term supporters Scott Bader Commonwealth for your continued support to The Lewis Foundation.
Over the last 4 years, they have financially contributed through funding to our gift packs for all adult cancer patients in Northampton General Hospital. If you received a pack at this hospital, you will have seen their logo on the front of the gift packs as one of the supporters?
We are pleased to now have their support by also gifting their time to support our work by helping us to pick and package our packs, ready to be gifted directly to the recipients in hospital. We have a number of gift-packing dates to look forward to and it is great to welcome the team to see first-hand how their support will make a difference.
There's so much behind the scenes work that goes into making our mission possible and we are truly grateful for your support.
Businesses like Scott Bader who partner with us make a real impact, both through donations and hands-on volunteering.

HOW WE SUPPORT CANCER PATIENTS IN HOSPITAL
110 of our gift packs have made their way onto our gift station shelf in Oncology at Northampton General Hospital NHS Trust. Plenty of choices from dry skin creams, puzzle books, hydration packs and books.
Find the station next to the reception and please help yourself to a gift pack once you have signed in for your appointment.
We love being able to provide these packs to this hospital over the last 8 years, it is great to still hear all these years later that patients look forward to them and they do make a difference.
