Parksprings Heart Project

Parksprings Heart Project

Residents and staff at Parksprings Care Home recently made up and delivered ‘High Tea Gift Boxes’ to local hospitals, police and fire stations to thank them for their help and support during the pandemic. 

Wishaw Hospital expressed their gratitude by sending Parksprings some hand-knitted hearts. Residents were able to pick 2 identical hearts of their choice, they get to keep one and send the other one to their loved ones or family.

This is an amazing initiative that allows residents and loved ones to think of each other during this difficult time. Positive messages have started to arrive from some families.
