​An update from Yeovil Hospital Charity – thank you to all our supporters for helping us support this incredible new build…
 
"We are now approaching £1,650,000 in the bank so we are closing in on the £2 million target! Based on this fundraising progress, we have now been able to give the green light to the hospital to get on and start building as soon as they can. Obviously with this pesky virus around, it might not be all smooth sailing but we anticipate having the new unit ready by the end of 2021.
 
COVID-19 is really dangerous for many of our cancer patients, so it is now more important than ever to get this unit done as it will help us to keep cancer patients away from other patients."
 
Thank you to all our friends and supporters for your continuing support of Ducks & Drakes Cancer Trust.
 
It’s been a difficult year for everyone and although the charity has had no fundraising events this year we’ve been continuing to raise awareness of the signs and symptoms of bowel cancer via our website and social media.
 
Generous donations from individuals will be used to support young bowel cancer patients in Dorset.
 
We sincerely hope that we will be able to get up and running again in 2021 with our popular events such as DuckFest, the clay shoot and cricket tournament, which will hopefully be bigger and better than ever!
 
We all wish you a very Merry Christmas and a happy and healthy New Year!
