Stoke Mandeville
Secretary: Jose Rico-Diaz - next meeting: Tuesday 19th September at 7.00pm
Stoke Mandeville branch was founded in 2016 after the Chairman of the SCKPA had lobbied the NHS over ill-conceived plans to increase car parking charges for dialysis patients at High Wycombe and Stoke Mandeville.
We hold our supper meetings at The Charter, 2 Rimmington Way, Aylesbury HP19 8AW. Click The Charter to visit their website. They have been very good friends to us and make us very welcome each time.
Stoke Mandeville branch decided that they wanted to get directly involved in raising funds for use at the Stoke Mandeville Renal Unit and for the SCKPA as a whole. More details can be found on the Fundraising pages of this website, but in summary we have;
-
Held a Car Boot Sale, courtesy of Princes Risborough Scouts and Guides Associations
-
Created and manage Sidney da Kidney who raises money by accompanying you on holiday
-
Set up and manage the range of SCKPA items available, e.g. NKS keys which open disabled toilets in public spaces such as pubs, shopping centres, motorway service stations, bus and train stations and many more
-
Installed individual television sets in the Stoke Mandeville dialysis ward for patients to watch the programmes of their own choice.
We acknowledge the great support given to this project by Aylesbury Freemasons and Haddenham (and other) Rotarians -
Hosted a barbeque and authentic paella lunch for patients and guests
