Something I'm very passionate about.
Raising funds and supporting the Palliative Care Auxiliary Bendigo .

Cuddle Beds 🧡

We often get asked " What is a Cuddle Bed ? ".

These beds in Palliative / Hospice care are a extra wide hospital bed.

Specially designed the bed allows patients to lie and sleep beside loved ones. It allows partners , children or family and friends a special physical connection during end of life care.

These beds reduce feelings of isolation from loved ones and provide a more home-like environment in hospice.

The Auxiliary has currently funded 2 of these beds for our Hospice Unit in Mercy Street, Bendigo in the last 12 months.

We Thank the Bendigo community for your wonderful support of our Auxiliary.

With the little spare time I have ......I am on the Bendigo Palliative Care Auxiliary. Mum and I joined this Auxiliary after Dad passed away in Bendigo Hospice.
So yesterday we helped cater for the Belvoir Park Charity Golf Day with all proceeds going to our Auxiliary. This money will enable us to purchase another cuddle bed for our Hospice unit and also other much needed items.
Over 90 golfers participated on the day and it has been a massive 30 years that the golf club has supported this event.
Thank you 🧡

After 10 years we have decided to call it a day for Bendigo Party Assistants.

There have been many changes for our family in the last month ( good changes ) and the decision was made we could not continue on with BPA.

To be honest the pandemic and aftermath also took a hit on us like everyone else. Also the cost of living ( being realistic ) changed people's thoughts when it came to hosting functions .

So many factors contributed to our decision .

We have met some of the most amazing people over the years ! We have been a part of so many big events in people's lives ! We have travelled around Country Victoria ! We have laughed, we have danced, we have loved every minute of it 💚

A big shout out to our Assistants.
Without you guys we wouldn't have been able to Take the Stress out of Functions.

To those who we have assisted over the years, it was a pleasure and thank you for trusting us to ensure your events ran smoothly 🙏

You never know maybe in the future you may see us pop up again but for now GOODBYE 💚
