Covid19 sponsered run/walk during pandemic , 20 April 2020
The arrival of coronavirus is placing continued pressure on our local NHS services in Leeds. As the official charity partner of Leeds Teaching Hospitals, we have launched an appeal to support our amazing NHS staff during the challenging times ahead.

Story

The Occupational Therapy team at St James wanted to raise money for Leeds cares during the covid19 pandemic as they have been a vital support to our Hospitals. We also wanted to boost staff morale and promote health and wellbeing of the staff within our teams. At lunch time 3 times a week our colleagues run/walk in their lunch break and do a circuit of St James Hospital. At the end of the covid19 pandemic we will calculate the amount of miles that have been walked or run by our teams and the person who guesses how many miles they think we will cover will win a £20 M and S voucher. When you donate please send your guess of how many miles you think we will complete at the end of the pandemic and send your name, guess and contact number to patricia.popiolek@nhs.net

Good luck with your guesses! :)

Our hospitals are run by 18,000 dedicated staff, from doctors and nurses to porters and cleaners, who are all working together to provide the best possible care for patients and their families at this difficult time.Help me support our NHS!£10 could pay for a comfort pack for staff who have to stay overnight at short notice£50 could stock up a snack area for staff working long hours£80 could pay for a hotel room for staff who need to stay close by or isolate from their families to keep working£200 could pay for an iPad for patients supporting education of children and providing vital connections to loved ones£1,000 could pay for a hydration station to remain fully stocked with drinks and snacks for staff for a month
