Fridays are “dress down” day for the busy team at Dutton Moore, in return for a small charity donation. This year they have raised £750, which has been match-funded by the practice, to make £1,500 for a local charity.

Dutton Moore Chartered Accountants and Business Advisers in Market Place, Hull, were delighted with the amount raised and staff member Joe Bolton asked for the money to be donated to the WISHH (Working Independently to Support Hull Hospitals) National Elf Service Appeal this Christmas. Last week Anita Porter, representing the accountancy practice handed over the money to nurses at Castle Hill Hospital.
The Elf Service adds a little Christmas magic to the area’s sickest children and older patients spending time in Hull Royal Infirmary and Castle Hill Hospital this festive season.
Lisa Whitton, WISHH Charity Manager said, “We love bringing the magic of Christmas to patients looked after across Hull Hospitals. Funds raised from this appeal enable us to buy gifts for children cared for in the Children’s Emergency Department, Eye Hospital, Anlaby Suite, Ward 130 and Paediatric High Dependency Unit, Acorn Ward, and other specialist areas across our hospitals.
“We also like to provide gifts for older patients, to include slippers, toiletries, arts and crafts, reminiscence gifts for dementia patients and other items for wards, to help make the hospital stay more comfortable for patients. Some older patients may not receive gifts or have visitors if family live far away, and we want them to have something to open on Christmas day.
“We are incredibly grateful for this kind donation made by Dutton Moore, it will be very well spent on gifts and bring a big smile to both the young and old this Christmas.”
Wendy Page, Interim Deputy Chief Nurse said, “We are still managing Covid-19 and are seeing a rise in flu cases. By supporting the National Elf Service appeal, funds donated will enable WISHH to give patients a bit of extra Christmas cheer. Our charity WISHH takes the strain out of buying and delivering gifts for patients, as they work alongside the wards to select ideal gifts for patients in their care.”
Joe Bolton: “I am thrilled that we have been able to donate to this special charity for the second year running. I hope our donation brings lots of smiles for the old and the young.”
Tony Bullock, Managing Partner, said: “We are always delighted to help local charity causes and I hope this donation buys lots of Christmas gifts across our two hospitals.”
