Comfort trolley to help those who need it
Local businesses have banded together to donate a fully stocked comfort trolley to assist Clifton Community Health Services with its palliative care services.
One of the toughest things a family can go through is when a loved one needs to go into palliative care.
Comfort trolleys make the process easier by giving families much less to worry about, providing them with the likes of homewares and kitchen appliances.
The idea came from pharmacy staff member Tanya Verri during this year’s National Palliative Care Week, held from 11 to 17 May.
Ms Verri said a total of $1,880 was raised through the raffle.
As well as members of the public donating raffle tickets, many local businesses donated money, prizes and items for the trolley.
Ms Verri said she would like to thank everyone who bought a raffle ticket and the businesses who donated as well, especially the Clifton Lions who donated $500 and Cefn, which donated the comfort trolley.
