The hospice is a local charity dedicated to providing free, high-quality, compassionate care and support in the London Boroughs of Royal Greenwich and Bexley. They care for over 2,500 people each year through their services at the hospice, in people\u2019s homes, and their day hospice clinics.<\/p>\n<p>The charity applied to CRASH to help create a much-needed new dining room, so that patients who are strong enough have the option to eat somewhere other than their room and sometimes with their visitors. The space can also be used to provide a place for special occasions and celebrations such as weddings, birthdays and special anniversaries.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>The CRASH solution<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>This project was led by CRASH Corporate Patron VolkerFitzpatrick. Fellow CRASH Patrons Arcadis, Areen Design, Bauder, Dulux Trade, London Building Control, Newtownstewart Construction, Sunbelt Rentals and a number of CRASH supporters, provided their professional expertise and construction products to build the new dining room extension for the hospice. Thanks to their incredible generosity, patients now have a beautiful dining space where they can relax and enjoy quality time with those they love.<\/p>\n        <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<section class=\"image-gallery\">\n    <div class=\"container\">\n        \n                <div class=\"image-gallery__slider\">\n            <div class=\"swiper-wrapper\">\n                                        <div class=\"image-gallery__slider__image swiper-slide\">\n                    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.crash.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/2-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\">\n                    <span>Exterior of the new dining room<\/span>\n                <\/div>\n\n                                <div class=\"image-gallery__slider__image swiper-slide\">\n                    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.crash.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/CANTEE1.jpg\" alt=\"\">\n                    <span>Interior of the completed dining room <\/span>\n                <\/div>\n\n                                        <\/div>\n                <div class=\"image-gallery__slider__navigation\">\n                <div id=\"image-gallery__slider__prev\" class=\"swiper-button-prev swiper-button\"><\/div>\n                <div id=\"image-gallery__slider__pagination\" class=\"swiper-pagination\"><\/div>\n                <div id=\"image-gallery__slider__next\" class=\"swiper-button-next swiper-button\"><\/div>\n            <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<script>\n    var imageSlider = new Swiper('.image-gallery__slider', {\n    pagination: {\n        el: '#image-gallery__slider__pagination',\n        type: 'fraction',\n      },\n      navigation: {\n        nextEl: '#image-gallery__slider__next',\n        prevEl: '#image-gallery__slider__prev',\n      },\n    });\n  <\/script>\n  \n\n\n<section class=\"simple-text-box simple-text-box--one\" >\n    <div class=\"container\">\n        <div class=\"one\">\n            <h3>How CRASH Patrons helped<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n        <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<section class=\"arrow-bullet-list\">\n    <ul>\n                    <li>The value of the expertise and construction products provided by CRASH Patrons and supporters was \u00a3149,276.<\/li>\n                    <li>CRASH provided a total grant of \u00a369,588, which included a restricted donation from The Story of Christmas for \u00a340,000.
