Ref: COW Ref 345A pool table. I currently work at Newbridges Hospital and recently we had our current pool table destroyed. This has led to our patients feeling bored and lost with noting to do. We would really help our unit and provide entertainment for the patients in our care.
Ref: COW ref 342We are looking for bongos - as a way of engaging patients with music, emotional regulation, and fun!
Ref: COW Ref 341We would like to request funding for the provision of 2 bikes to use within our mental health service to enable patients to participate in meaningful activity to enhance their recovery. Our service works with people with severe enduring mental health issues who often have significantly reduced activity participation. It is also well evidenced that physical exercise enhances health and well being for people recovering from mental health deficits and can provide positive effects on recovery. Due to this we would like to be able to offer cycling as an intervention to utilise with our patients to provide as part of our therapy intervention tool kit. We request 2 bikes to facilitate cycling for patient which may have escorted leave only therefore would require a staff member to join supervise them during the activity.
Ref: COW Ref 330We really need a new shed (8ft x 10ft) and wheel barrow (or 2) for our gardening group. As with everything within the group, we have repaired and patched up but now beyond repair. We have 1 wheel barrow left now so a new shed (flat packed is fine), will be able to rehouse a new one or 2. Thank you x
Ref: COW Ref 293The PSYPHER Art group would like to make a wish for funds to replenish their stock for arts and crafts supplies as we are running low. We were hoping to visit the Scrap store to purchase Craft materials for Halloween and Christmas this year. This would be greatly appreciated by our service users.
Ref: COW ref 287The wish is for Rossmore stroke rehabilitation unit, Hull. I have recently been accredited as a mindfulness teacher and wish to run mindfulness for stress and health courses. I need equipment to support this. We also wish to run gardening and arts groups to support rehabilitation.
Ref: COW Ref 274Urgently needed: Fencing for our new therapeutic allotment in Driffield. Currently the fencing around the site is unsafe and crumbling. Please can our Allotment group make a wish for new fences and a new gate for 3 sides of our plot - we are happy to paint them once in place!
Ref: COW Ref 265Please can I make a wish for some more bits and bobs to enhance my aromatherapy practice 🙂 I really need Lava bracelet,s aroma pendants, some 1ml little bottles. I have been trialling aroma sticks as well and have found these really popular. Thank you so much I appreciate all your help.
May we request to reinstate gardener (Graham Pickard) to maintain the Macmillan Wolds Unit gardens - the area is used regularly for patients waiting to see various clinicians and have deteriorated greatly since Graham stopped coming every Wednesday.
