Calling all<br />

budding artists<br />

Gallery Iceni<br />

needs you!<br />

At the Iceni Partnership, we are always looking<br />

for new art groups, or individuals who would<br />

like to showcase their work in our<br />

gallery in the community centre.<br />

<strong>Swaffham</strong> Community Hospital LOFs<br />

A slightly quiet time now in one respect. We are<br />

maintaining the newly revamped garden at the rear<br />

of the hospital. We have added some additional<br />

planting and bulbs. With our new gazeebo we plan<br />

to have an external Christmas tree.<br />

Regarding Christmas preparations...a new supply<br />

of “Friends” Christmas cards are here, so please<br />

support us by purchasing some. We have them<br />

at our events and they are on sale at hospital<br />

reception. We are also supporting the usual practice<br />

of making sure all patients in over the Christmas<br />

period receive presents. We are supporting<br />

hospital staff to ensure a programme of pre<br />

Christmas activities/entertainment for patients.<br />

We have confirmed that we are participating in<br />

the “Christmas Tree Festival” in church, the first<br />

week of December and will have a table at the<br />

Rotary Christmas event.<br />

This is an opportunity to thank those businesses<br />

in town who support us by hosting one of our<br />

collection boxes. These are of great value to us. If<br />

you think you might be able to help us by hosting<br />

one of our boxes, we would love to hear from you<br />

Looking ahead to next year, we hope to be<br />

assisting with the purchase of some new “purpose<br />

designed” bedside chairs for patients. Also we<br />

hope that the Health Trust will support the idea<br />

of an extension to the existing main day/dining<br />

room. In the new year, once the Methodist church<br />

is fully back open we will hold more of our coffee<br />

mornings.<br />
