PROJECT DETAILS
THE PROJECT
Hope House Children’s Hospice is a charity that gives every local child with a life-threatening condition and their family access to professional care and improves their quality of life from the point of diagnosis.
THE CHALLENGE
Upon visiting the hospice, it was identified that areas of their outdoor space were being under-utilised due to a lack of versatility. Roché identified an opportunity to expand the usage of this area with the addition of an outdoor shading solution.
THE SOLUTION
Roché is proud to have donated the Markilux Planet, an advanced awning system designed to offer optimal flexibility and comfort with its 335 degree rotation abilities. This is the perfect solution which enables the shade to be moved to wherever it is needed so that children, parents and staff can make full use of the outdoor area throughout the day.
Hope House Nursing Manager Hayley Woodcock thanked Roché for their wonderful gesture.
She said: “It’s been lovely to see children, staff and families being able to safely enjoy being outside on sunny days. We have some beautiful gardens at Hope House and the new awning has allowed us to make the most of them during the summer. Our specialist care and therapies team have been able run music, play and art sessions, as well simply relaxing in the fresh air. Thank you Roché for this incredibly kind donation.”
