Staff from Doff Portland Nottingham visited Maggies Nottingham to handover the donated products
Doff Portland have teamed up with Maggie’s Cancer Support to support the gardeners in the Maggie’s gardens across the country.
Maggies’s run centres across the country, located alongside NHS Hospitals, offering free expert care and support to cancer patients and their families.
Doff are supporting Maggie’s garden spaces that are integral to their care programme and respite environment.
Doff have created a bespoke Seaweed range for Maggie’s gardeners and are also donating a wide range of other gardening supplies, from bug control to plant fertilisers.
Doff products will help with the maintenance of these outdoor spaces which are phenomenally important to visitors and their families. The charity will also become the company charity of choice, with Doff encouraging employees to work with Maggie’s going forward.
“We are so grateful to Doff Portland for their very generous donation of products for our garden. The garden is a very important part of Maggie’s and our gardener Kathryn and her team of volunteers work incredibly hard to maintain this beautiful space for our centre visitors. Thank you to all at Doff Portland for thinking of Maggie’s and for helping to make a real difference in the community” . – Robin Muir, Centre Head
Ben Shaprio, Doff Portland’s CEO said “We are delighted to be able to support such an important cause. At Doff Portland, we appreciate the amazing work done by the Maggie’s Charity, especially with their investment in garden spaces. We hope our contribution to this cause only helps to develop this further”
