Story
Unfortunately staff working in the COVID positive wards at the Edinburgh Royal Infirmary are seeing first hand how desperately unwell these people are and how little they have.
Without any visitors, and families at home in isolation they have little or no clothing and toiletries.
We’re looking to purchase men’s/ladies pyjamas, toiletries and, if donations permit, hospital ipads to allow them to keep in touch with their families at such a difficult time.
We appreciate that things are difficult for everyone right now but if you can help someone in the most difficult of times if would be very much appreciated.

5 years agoI have been so touched by the generosity you have all shown my appeal. Bottom line is as a community you want to help and I promise to make that happen. Storage will soon be confirmed were items can be organised appropriately and delivered to clinical areas in what we’re now calling “rainbow boxes” The iPads will be donated alongside. This is bigger than I ever expected and you have to bare with me. I’m trying to assure this is all done in the most constructive way benefiting the patients. Thanks will all my heart Ali ❤️
