CLIENT EXPERIENCES
“I have been working with The Lewis Foundation on behalf of Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust for 4 years. During this time I have personally witnessed the difference this charity makes for people living with a cancer diagnosis.
When I first met Lorraine and Lee Lewis, their dedication and commitment to improving the lives of people with cancer were clear to see. They had a simple idea and turned that idea into a charity that improves lives. The gifts they supply combat loneliness, make people feel cared for, lift mood and in many cases provide clothing and food during long days in hospital for people who may not have the means to provide this for themselves.
I could recount endless stories like the ones below and the overwhelming response to the packs, is of gratitude but also of feeling cared for and less alone.
The Lewis Foundation are a joy to work alongside and I hope they continue to raise the funds needed to sustain this wonderful and unique charity.”
"This month alone and with the help of this wonderful charity:
We gave Joyce an art pack which she completed on the ward while receiving life saving treatment. The pack prompted a discussion with the person in the next bed and together they worked on the art, got to know one another and formed a
Friendship.
We gave Peter and overnight pack after he was unexpectedly admitted to the ward from an out-patients clinic. The pack provided him with essential toiletries, underwear and nightwear.
We gave a sickness band pack to Susan, who was struggling with nausea during Treatment.
Michael picked up a book to read during his long chemotherapy sessions and when he finishes it, he will pass it on the another patient having chemotherapy.
We gave James a hot drink and snack pack after he told us that he was at hospital all day for treatments and didn’t have the means to get a drink or snack."
