£500 raised for SCBU, QEQM, Margate
Thank you to all our staff and customers who helped us raise £500 for Special Care Baby Unit. We have offered free cream teas for donations, held raffles and a range of activities in the Parlour and all money has been gratefully received.
On Valentine’s Day 2018, our little granddaughter Ivy was born – far too early, in a hurry am feet first! We are so grateful for the care received in SCBU and realize today how lucky we are to have her in our lives and the tremendous joy she brings to the family.
On Valentine’s day this year, Ivy’s first birthday, myself, my daughter and her partner revisited special care to present the Cheque, some
Bessie cakes and some dear little hats for the babies – knitted by our waitress Evie’s gran.
