After years of being closed, the Tea Hatch at Shotley Bridge Hospital has officially reopened today by Willow Burn Hospice 💚
We're very proud to bring this much-loved service back, offering refreshments to patients and staff. Whilst Willow Burn is operating the Tea Hatch, it's all thanks to Joan Littlefair [pictured left] who sought permission from the NHS Property Team, Aaron Archibald (Senior Estates Manager - NHS Property Services) and to our amazing team of volunteers.
Joan and Elizabeth have had a wonderful day today serving patients and staff, it's safe to say we have had a warm Derwentside welcome 🫶
If you'd like to be part of something special, we’re looking for volunteers on:
☕️ Wednesday afternoons
☕️ Thursday afternoons
