Ward 86 at Royal Manchester Children’s Hospital received their first delivery of the new year at the start of this week.
David and Vicky delivered 20 Milly’s Bags to the ward, taking the total number of bags delivered to 960 Bags over the last 7 years.
We aim to ensure that each of the wards we support have a constant supply of Milly Bags, which means we often respond to requests for delivery at only a few days notice.
To be able to deliver at short notice means having Milly Bags constantly packed and ready to go, which is a huge credit to our volunteer bag packers who regularly come and bag pack for us. We are fortunate that our unit has enough storage to be able to accommodate around 100 completed Milly Bags.
We are also extremely lucky in having delivery drivers who will aim to deliver at a moments notice.
Having a brilliant team ensures the constant smooth running of Milly’s Smiles, and because of this we can continue making a difference to newly diagnosed families every single day.
