There's one part of every Breast Friends Surgery Kit that can't be bought, donated or ordered.
A name.
Before each Kit leaves HQ, the volunteer who packed it adds their name to the packing sheet.
It's a simple thing, but time and time again, people tell us it's the part they remember.
Knowing that a real person packed their Kit. Someone who took the time to check every item, fold the tissue paper and send a little kindness out into the world.
Today, Amanda was one of the wonderful volunteers helping pack Surgery Kits for patients being treated at Ipswich and Colchester Hospitals.
For Amanda, it was just part of a morning spent volunteering.
For someone opening one of those Kits in the days ahead, her name may become a small but important reminder that they're not facing this alone.💕
If you've received a Breast Friends Kit, we'd love to hear from you. What was the item, gesture or detail that meant the most?
