“You matter because you are you: And you matter to the last moment of your life”.
Dame Cecily Saunders
Living with cancer presents many challenges. At such a difficult time, The Malta Hospice Movement works tirelessly to provide care and support free of charge. Hospice aims to help patients maintain their independence and dignity, help them stay in the familiar surroundings of their own home for as long as possible if that is their wish and to enhance their quality of life.
One of the ways in which Hospice does this is through the loan of special ‘aids to living’ equipment, such as wheel chairs, special beds, hoists and lifters, commodes, easy chairs with back support, and many others. These items enhance the comfort of patients and facilitate the task of their carers. No charge is made for this and all other services. However, the equipment is very costly and the demand for it is high, with over 700 patients making use of Hospice services each year.
Through Dermot Galea’s participation in Ironman France on Sunday 27th June 2010, he is supporting the invaluable services of The Malta Hospice Movement. His aim is to raise enough funds for Hospice to buy more special beds, each costing €1,400. In his fourth Ironman, the nine time National Triathlon Champion will be swimming 3.8km, cycling 180km and running 42.2km in order to support Hospice patients and their families, while attempting to qualify for the Ironman World Championships in Hawaii.
You too can support The Malta Hospice Movement and help Dermot raise enough funds for these special beds:
By sending a cheque payable to The Malta Hospice Movement to 39, Good Shepherd Avenue, Balzan BZN 1623.
By sending an SMS to: With Dermot Galea - Ironman
