Waitrose Donation to 2022 Special Project

This was a Waitrose delivery with a difference! We were so grateful to hear from Helen, Branch Manager of Waitrose in Heathfield, who said that she would be making a donation to the Friends of Eastbourne Hospital on behalf of Waitrose & Partners. Every quarter, Waitrose & Partners allows each branch to donate funds to local charities, specifically those working towards projects, and Helen therefore reached out to offer a donation towards our 2022 Special Project to fund the replacement Da Vinci Robot in Urology. Pictured from left to right are Helen, Friends Chairman Dr Harry Walmsley and Friends Trustee Trish Hamblin. Once again, a very big thank you to Waitrose for getting us even closer to our target.
