Hywel Dda Health Charities, the official charity of Hywel Dda University Health Board, has funded a bench for use in South Pembrokeshire Hospital.
The bench has been installed in the communal garden of the hospital for the benefit of patients, staff and visitors.
“Patients can leave the ward with their visitors and spend time connecting in an open space. Similarly, staff can sit together outside or take a moment for themselves for some reflection or mindfulness which will contribute to staff morale and wellbeing.”
Nicola Llewelyn, Head of Hywel Dda Health Charities, the official charity of Hywel Dda University Health Board, said: “This is a great example of how your local NHS charity funds projects and items that make a real difference, such as welcoming environments for patients, visitors, and staff.
“The support of our local communities enables us to provide services over and above what the NHS can provide in the three counties of Hywel Dda and we are extremely grateful for every donation we receive.”
