Hospice Pin Board

Ramadan is near and is expected to commence on 17th February this year or very soon after.  

If you or any of your team members are observing Ramadan, please feel free to reach out to your line manager or to HR to discuss any specific support or adjustments you may need during this period.

We’re currently looking for donations of unisex items or gifts suitable for men that can be used in raffles.

We’re incredibly grateful for the generous donations we receive, but we often find we have fewer items that are suitable for men, so your support in this area would be especially appreciated.

If you are able to make any donations please let Fiona Finch know.

4.0 Health and safety at work

4.9 Smoking and use of electronic cigarettes/ vaping at work and on LOROS premises

5.42 Neonatal Care Leave (Birth)

The dates and deadlines for the 2026 Hospice Pin Board editions are below. If you have anything in the pipeline then let us know – it’s never too early to give us the heads up!

If you are submitting an article and/or photograph, you are responsible for ensuring that everyone identified in the article (i.e. recognisably photographed or mentioned) are aware that it will be published in the newsletter and on staff intranet pages. A marketing consent form must be obtained from each identified individual and passed to the marketing team in advance of publication – we cannot publish any article without full individual consent. Copies of consent forms can be obtained from the marketing team or by following this link to fill it in online.

Articles published on the intranet are on hidden pages with access promoted to staff, volunteers and trustees only. Although the pages are hidden, they are not password controlled, and therefore may be findable/searchable on the internet. If you would like to opt-out of having your name or photograph published on the intranet, please let us know at marketing@loros.co.uk.

Thank you for your understanding.
