Neuro rehab patients have many challenges. With impaired vision and cognitive function one patient couldn't read the clock in their bay. A small purchase of a bedside clock should reduce the stress of being late for appointments and improve day to day quality of life.

Ward Physiotherapist Maddie put in a bid for some specialist shoes; many patients on the ward need orthoses but don't have access to appropriate footwear that accommodates the insert. Not having suitable shoes can result in discomfort, instability and pressure sores. We have donated 6 pairs as a trial to encourage patients to buy their own shoes and assess how many can not afford to.

The trial Zumba classes were a great success so we are funding 16 more classes, that are free for staff to attend, through to March 2026 with our international award winning instructor Antonio! The classes have now moved to a larger venue, the canteen, where disco lighting can be used! The classes are organised by Antonio who is an OT here at QMH and St Georges Health and Wellbeing team.
