HOSPITALITY CART

Servicing the families with children receiving treatment in the Paediatric ward and Special Care Nursery of Dubbo Hospital.

Our volunteer led program was established in 2024 and so far we have supported over 800 families with this vital service.

The bedside service delivers essential items such as toiletries and refreshments as well as activity books, hand knitted blankets, toys, games and snacks to families. The service is run most days and is a comfort to the children and carers in their time of need.

At the start of each month a ‘Wishlist’ of donated non-perishable good is put out to our community to supplement the support that we receive from our National Corporate Partners.

Mobile support that helps families stay by their child’s bedside.

Our many Hospitality Carts across Australia are packed with toys, colouring in books and other goodies to keep children entertained, as well as snacks and hygiene products for parents and loved ones. The Cart rolls right outside the hospital bedroom, bringing treats and special surprises.

Whether it be a boredom busters or special surprise, our Carts are stocked by donations and run by volunteers, meaning there is no cost to families.

Make a Difference for Families & Children

Parents don’t know when their children will need medical help. But they should know they can always access the care they need. And with your help, we can support them all throughout their journey.
