Hospital Packs from The Freemasons Charity

This project really has grown a life of its own thanks to the sterling efforts of the Northern Division Grand Almoner VWBro Ray Laurance and his colleague from the Central Division VWBro Gordon Riach and their teams.

These packs continue to be hugely popular with the A & E Departments in hospitals throughout the North Island, Grand Lodge has been pleased to receive several letters of thanks from various DHBs and hospitals who have received these packs.

Distribution numbers have now reached over 1500 many thanks to all concerned.

Some of the comments have been...

From a DHB
“It’s a great asset to the nurses to be able to offer patients these very necessary kits in a time that is sometimes stressful and difficult for them.”

From Whakatane
“Given to patients ill prepared for admission, a very thoughtful gesture.”

From a Nurse Manager:
“There is a great need for them and we appreciate that the Freemasons are able to help in this way.”

Great work everyone!
