Thank you to Morrisons Foundation
The charitable arm of the supermarket, Morrisons, extended a £9,968 grant to transform the Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) spaces at Wokingham Hospital into more friendly environments for young people during what can be a very challenging time in their lives.
New modifiable lighting, projections, artwork, and sensory tools have created a calming atmosphere for patients, helping young people feel more comfortable and supported during their care journey.
Our achievements are only made possible through the unwavering support of our community and corporate partners.
