We are aiming to raise at least £65,000 so that we can continue making a difference for patients attending the Hospital of St Cross and the NHS Community Service in Rugby. We will publish, here and on social media, some reminders of the support you have enabled us to provide and some of the donations we receive towards the Appeal. Due to the pandemic the appeal was not launched until 1st October 2020 and will run until December 2021. Click here to donate!!

An anonymous supporter constructed a 7 foot tall obelisk, which was kindly installed by Vinci Facilities, next to the entrance to the Friends Blood Taking Unit.

Senior Phlebotomist, Babs Langridge was on hand to thank Marie and Reg, of Rimo Growers of Medda Place in Dunchurch, who came along to plant a variety of flowers and bulbs which they have donated and will flower in the coming months.

Willy Goldschmidt, Chairman of the Friends of St Cross, said “It’s great how local businesses support the hospital in a variety of ways such as this. We look forward to seeing some extra colour in this area which I am sure will be appreciated by the hundreds of people pass it by every day!”
