Soroptimists unite to honour hardworking maternity staff at Christmas
Each Christmas SI Cannock & District give gifts to a group of women who deserve our support and thanks. Last year, together with SI Wolverhampton and SI Bilston, they chose the staff who work in the postnatal and antenatal wards at the Maternity and Neonatal department in New Cross Hospital.
Just before Christmas, to thank the hardworking staff who support our local mothers and babies, they delivered 90 gifts of a multicoloured pen and hand cream for each of the midwives and staff who work on the wards. They also gave tubs of sweets to the Delivery Unit and the Athena Group (formerly known as the Vulnerable Women’s Unit).
SI Cannock’s Lead Team President Carole Holdcroft and Programme Action Lead Tracey Stokes played Santa taking the presents to the hospital along with Season’s Greetings from all members of the three clubs.
