1,000 Gloves Donated to Hospice

1,000 Gloves Donated to Hospice

August 13, 2020
Thank you and well done to Jason Thorne, Operations Manager, and the team at Northfleet Block plant for donating 1,000 examination gloves to St Luke’s hospice.

Jason takes up the story: “Wayne Moon works for us at Northfleet Block Plant Building Products, his wife works at the hospice doing voluntary work. She mentioned to Wayne that they were struggling to get disposable gloves and that they desperately needed them.

Wayne then approached me and asked if we could help, as PPE is a major part of our working day we didn’t hesitate. So, Wayne and his wife, Denise, made a surprise visit to present them with 1,000 pairs of gloves. They were very grateful and couldn’t thank us enough.”

The team received a lovely thank you letter from the hospice showing their appreciation.  They said that the gloves would help their carers and nursing staff support patients in their own homes.
