Sarah Edwards – Sponsor a Nurse

Sarah adds: “I love creating art, a passion I rediscovered a few years ago. I started creating collages after I saw a picture of a dog made out of maps and I've adapted it to my own technique. Each of my collages has a postage stamp incorporated within them in homage to my dad who collects stamps and it has become my trademark.

“I have also designed and painted statues for the hospice’s Wild in Art trails, including Thirty Ears – The Harey Mammoth which featured in Elmer’s Big Parade Suffolk 2019. These trails have been brilliant to be a part of as they celebrate creativity as well as highlight the work of the hospice to the wider community.”

Through Sponsor a Nurse, St Elizabeth Hospice is asking supporters to make a regular payment commitment to support the work of its nurses, in order to allow the hospice to plan for the future and ensure it can continue to evolve and expand its services to care for patients and their families in the local community for years to come.

“The support the hospice receives from the local community is absolutely fantastic and means the world to all the staff,” explained Sarah.

“By participating in hospice fundraising events and supporting campaigns, such as Sponsor a Nurse, our supporters make a big difference to the team and to the patients and families we have the privilege of caring for.”
