Wisbech window fitters win heartfelt thanks from local hospital after donation extravaganza!

Communications Teamby
Family-run business Supreme Windows have been giving back to the children’s ward that cared for a baby relative when she became severely unwell.  

Macey, now six years-old, was admitted to The QEH aged just six months, battling a life-threatening case of sepsis. Her two-week stay at the hospital marked a pivotal moment in her journey to recovery.

A few years later, Macey received tonsillectomy on the Rudham Ward. Andrew Carson, her uncle and Supreme Windows manager said: “The vast array of toys and activities which were provided made Macey’s visit much more comfortable.

“After speaking to the wonderful staff and finding out that the toys and activities are gifted, we felt it was only right we do our part. We wanted to thank the team for their fantastic work and help them continue to provide a happier environment in what can be a difficult time.”

The team from Supreme Windows recently visited Rudham Ward at The QEH to generously gift a range of items including a tablet, assorted craft kits and a delightful collection of sensory toys for toddlers. Going above and beyond, the company fulfilled the ward’s entire Amazon wish list.

Sophie Carter, Health Play Specialist on Rudham Ward, said: “We are overwhelmed and very thankful for the generosity shown by Supreme Windows to our patients on Rudham Ward.

“All of the purchases will benefit the children and young people under our care. Play is a vital part in aiding a child’s recovery and toys can be used as an effective distraction tool – providing a little bit of normality in an unfamiliar hospital environment. This generous donation will make a huge difference, and we are so grateful.”

If you would be interested in donating an item to The QEH via an amazon wish list you can visit to the Arthur Levin Children’s Day Surgery Amazon wish list or the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Amazon wish list.
