Thanks to public donations to Rotherham Hospital and Community Charity’s Purple Butterfly In-Memory Giving Fund, the charity has recently been able to enhance and maintain the four beautiful Purple Butterfly end-of-life rooms at Rotherham Hospital.
Kind donations from Rotherham residents are ensuring that families can spend precious moments together in a comfortable, peaceful space during difficult times.
As these rooms are always in use, everyday items naturally become worn over time. Donations to the Purple Butterfly In-Memory Giving Fund allow the charity to keep the rooms in top condition for families when they need them most.
Rotherham Hospital and Community Charity is proud to have funded brand-new enhancements in the end-of-life rooms, including:
- Smart TVs for entertainment and comfort
- Microwaves and lamps for convenience
- Sofa beds and day beds to allow families to stay close to their loved ones
- Kitchen essentials – plates, mugs, and cutlery
- Plants to create a calming atmosphere
- Games and radios for cherished moments together
- Sensory night light projectors and bubble tubes for relaxation
- Diffusers to bring calm
Rotherham Hospital and Community Charity is dedicated to ensuring that the care provided to patients and their loved ones is the best it can be.
