It has been another productive week for those amazing volunteers at New Forest Sewing for the NHS. Supported by the Rotary Club of Becton & District this week has seen the project move forward at an increasing pace and in the face of a frenetic demand have managed to achieve the following-
Scrubs - 30 sets have been delivered to Oakhaven and a further 60 to other various locations. Our photo below shows two of the doctors at Oakhaven proudly wearing their new scrubs.
Gowns - 230 have been shipped to Southampton General Hospital. The photo show Rtn Keith of Becton Rotary loading part of the consignment for delivery to SGH. Keith is also one of the “Mission Control” team who are doing so much to keep everything on track. Well done to Gavin and his team.
