Help us create a memorial garden for those we have lost to Covid-19

Today we have launched our fundraising appeal to create two memorial ‘Rainbow Gardens’ at Doncaster Royal Infirmary (DRI) and Bassetlaw Hospital sites.

Donate here: https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/doncaster-bassetlaw

Colleagues from across the Trust suggested that gardens be created in memory of all the local people who have sadly lost their life to the virus, including their beloved colleagues Kevin Smith and Dr Medhat Atalla.

To date 200 people have sadly died at the Trust from Covid-19.

To help us remember these colleagues, friends and loved ones, we are asking the people of Doncaster and Bassetlaw to help us raise the following:

  • £25k to create a garden at DRI and Bassetlaw Hospital sites
  • £30k to commission the materials to create a memorial at DRI for lost colleagues
  • £35k to purchase additional tables and benches to be located across all sites for patients and staff to enjoy

To support the Rainbow Garden’s appeal you can donate on the Just Giving Page: https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/doncaster-bassetlaw or contact the fundraising team on 01302 644244.​
