Have you ever had
a long term stay in hospital? Or maybe you've been a regular
visiting to long term hosptial patients. Either way, take yourself
back to that environment. How was it? Dull, clinical, energy
zapping?
Unfortunately, it's a reality for a lot of people. And if it's ICU
or some similar ward, there will be no flowers, no personal notes,
cards, no teddy bears or "get well" balloons.
So how do they pass the time of day? Hoping for visitors or some
little change to the routine. This is where we can all help. The
Motorccyle Riders Association of SA (MRASA) has a sub-committee
called the 4Bs. This is a group of dedicated people who give up
their own time to visit patients in Adelaide's hospitals as often
as they can manage.
So we've got a bit of visiting under our belts but what about when
they can't be there. That's when they decided to come up with
another option to help pass the time. The started a fund raising
initiative to purchase DVD players together with an initial DVD
Library to donate to the hospitals.
Now this was a couple of years ago so you could imagine the
condution of the DVDs by now. So they're looking to boost the
Library coffers with a big drive to get some more DVDs donated and
Andersons was more than happy to assist with a kick start and the
provision of all its office locations at "drop off" points.
Want to get involved? Great! See the attached flyer. We're looking
for up to six DVDs per donation and they can be dropped into any
Andersons office. Here are our locations.
So help Andersons help the MRASA 4Bs. Donate today!
