Buy a gift for a cancer patient
Offer a choice of 29 different gift packs based on what patients have told them would help in hospital. They choose what gift they would like during their hospital visit. For someone diagnosed with cancer, even the smallest gift can make a difficult day feel a little brighter. You can buy a complete gift pack for £3.60, or choose individual items that go directly into the packs we deliver to hospitals across the Midlands. Every purchase helps us bring comfort, distraction and a moment of kindness to someone who truly needs it.
What comes in every gift pack
Each Lewis Foundation gift pack is carefully put together to bring comfort, distraction and a small moment of joy to someone receiving cancer treatment. Every item is chosen with one goal in mind helping patients feel remembered, supported and less alone during a difficult time.
Activity books and games
Distraction matters when you’re spending long hours in a hospital bed. We include puzzles, colouring books, word searches, Sudoku and other activity books that help patients focus their minds somewhere other than treatment.
Things to pass the time
Our gift packs include books, colouring books, puzzle books and craft sets — carefully chosen to give patients something absorbing, calming and creative to focus on during long treatment sessions or overnight stays.
Things to provide comfort
Skin creams, blankets and overnight packs with toiletries and underwear — practical, thoughtful items chosen to help patients feel cared for and as comfortable as possible during treatment or an unexpected stay.Â
Small toys and comfort items
Sometimes it’s the smallest things that make the biggest difference. Soft toys, small keepsakes and stress toys give patients something reassuring to hold onto during their stay.
Treats and surprises
Sweets, snacks and small surprises add a little brightness to the day. They’re simple things, but they remind patients that someone cared enough to choose them.
Pick the way you want to give
Any item purchased below is delivered directly to The Lewis Foundation and placed into the gift packs we provide to cancer patients in hospitals.
These small items may seem simple, but together they create moments of comfort, distraction and kindness for people going through treatment. You can choose a single item or add multiple items to help us build more gift packs. The items below are all part of the Lewis Foundation gift list and are regularly used when building packs for patients.Â
