A Medway and Maidstone Soroptimist joined Medway Scrubbers at the start of the first lockdown to offer her sewing skills to help the NHS.\u00a0 She has remained busy working tirelessly over the past year making scrubs, face masks and drainage bags.<\/p>\n

\"3<\/a>The latest request received by Medway Scrubbers was asking if they could make some bonding hearts for the premature babies at Medway Maritime Hospital as they were desperately needed. \u00a0Medway Maritime Hospital have 1100 premature babies in a year and every baby needs 5 bonding hearts.\u00a0 These bonding hearts are particularly important for the parents to start to build a bond with their child especially if they are not allowed to touch or hold them.<\/p>\n
