March News

Please join us at our Annual General Meeting on March 10th from 12.30 in the green room of the Rosie Birthing Centre

At our AGM we found out how appreciative the staff and patients are of our Tea Bar in the outpatient department and the purchases and financial assistance given to The Rosie in 2013.

We were invited to tour the refurbished Daphne Ward for the gynaecology patients and the old Parentcraft room for mothers with early pregnancy problems.

The Friends of the Rosie helped to finance these refurbishments and bought some billimeters for the community midwives in 2013.

The Tea Bar raised £5,000 and Rosie in Stitches raised £3,000.

The Friends of the Rosie Hospital are helping to make the Rosie a more comfortable environment for mothers and babies. If you have any toy stuffing, spare ribbons or yarn we are in urgent need of your donation. For up-to-the minute information follow Rosie in Stitches facebook page. Our profit for 2014 is currently at £379. Thank you for your custom, please have a look below for where you can shop with us again.
