🩷£4,102.50 🩷 WOW! It was great to see Stuart Turner from LensGo Visual Media following his Mount Snowdon Trek earlier this year with his best pals. The team have raised this absolutely incredible figure to support our Dementia Appeal.

Stu does so much for lots of local charities and we are so thankful he chose to support our appeal - which will help to transform the hospital environment for so many local people living with dementia.

A big thank you to all of the business sponsors who supported the team too - this amazing figure wouldn't have been possible without all of your support too.

The wonderful Cody bravely shared her story following the loss of her daughter, Halle in January.

Cody, Dean and their family will be joining us at our Autumn Memory Walk 2026 to walk in memory of Halle and raise money for other people facing baby loss in our community.

You can join us and remember your loved one at this special event to support the ward or NHS team that are close to your heart. Find out more here https://www.therotherhamft.nhs.uk/charity/autumn-memory-walk

Cody and Dean were expecting twins when during a routine scan the couple were told one of the babies' hearts had stopped beating.

Following the devastating news, they were transferred to the Snowdrop Suite at Rotherham Hospital, a charity-funded suite to support families dealing with the loss of a baby.

Cody described the Snowdrop Suite as "an absolute lifeline" and as a thank you the couple are planning a sponsored walk to raise funds for the charity.
