Alan had been a patient at Nottingham City Hospital but decided to leave a gift in his Will to Hayward House following the care received by members of his family a few years ago. Alan’s wife, Josephine, says “Alan’s brother and my sister were both looked after at Hayward House a few years ago. The care and love they received from the staff at Hayward House was wonderful and something we never forgot. So both Alan and I decided that we would leave a legacy in our Will to help the staff at Hayward House continue their fantastic work”. Elizabeth Chant chose to leave an incredible legacy of £20,000 to our Haematology Day Case Unit. This was following the care she and her family received on the unit. Elizabeth’s brother, Roland, explains why: “The key thing for Liz throughout the last months was that the Haematology Day Case Unit became her family. When she was being given endless blood transfusions, she relied totally on the staff there – they never let her down. They were able to help her through the ever deepening troughs with robust good humour and genuine laughs! I cannot speak highly enough of their care”.

We also advise that, where possible, the next of kin and family members are informed of our supporters’ decision to leave a gift in their Will to Nottingham Hospitals Charity.
