🌟 Fundraising Success for CHAS! 🌟
We’re thrilled to share an incredible achievement by our team member Caroline Tait, who raised a great donation for Children’s Hospices Across Scotland (CHAS). Thanks to everyone’s generosity and kindness, she raised an amazing £650 to support the incredible work CHAS does for children and families across Scotland. 💙
As part of this initiative, we were also proud to hand over a beautiful painting created by our talented colleague Monica Miles on behalf of NHEH. This stunning artwork will soon be displayed at Robin House CHAS Hospice in Balloch, bringing warmth and joy to everyone who visits.
A huge thank you to everyone who donated and supported Caroline with her efforts. Your kindness truly makes a difference! 🙌

🦴 World Osteoporosis Day – October 20th 🦴
Strong bones are the foundation of a healthy life. Osteoporosis often goes unnoticed until a fracture occurs — but it doesn’t have to.
📊 A DXA (or DEXA) scan is the gold standard for measuring bone density. It’s quick, painless, and can help detect early signs of bone loss before it leads to serious complications.
🏥 Did you know? Our hospital is one of only two in Scotland where you can access a private DXA scan. That means faster appointments, expert care, and peace of mind.
