The charitable arm of the supermarket has enabled the hospice to buy a much-needed medicine trolley, drug cabinets/lockers for patient's beds and laptops for nursing staff's medical rounds.
The equipment for the hospice, which has been caring for patients with life limiting conditions and their families from across West Yorkshire for over thirty years, will greatly improve the efficiency of their professional nurses to administer medications to patients.
