Using templates provided for the Postnatal, NICU and Gynae Oncology wards, you'll craft short, heartfelt messages that bring comfort and connection to patients and families — a lovely opportunity for art students and other creative volunteers to get involved in a meaningful way.


What you'll be doing:

  • Writing and decorating personal cards using RWHF templates
