“Building up Jigsaw fund”

“A support group for people with blood disorders such as leukaemia, myeloma and lymphoma has dedicated a double brick for the Jigsaw Walk at the Royal Bournemouth Hospital.
 
It will join others set into the pathway around the hospital’s lake as part of the fundraising appeal to extend and improve the cancer and blood disorders unit.

HaemSupport’s Chairman, Gillian Beavis, Treasurer, Robert Cork, Secretary, Jane Spinney and another of the founder members, Phillip Beedon, presented the brick to chief executive Tony Spotswood.

Haem Support was started in February 2006 to support patients, their families and carers suffering from haematological conditions.  It aims to provide friendship, education, information and a social support network”.
