Sponsor Calm Fairy Marcia at Townsville Hospital
After completing the 12 week pilot program at Townsville University Hospital in August 2023, Marcia kindly continued to donate her time for another 9 months. Brighter Lives began sponsoring Marcia's ward visits from July 2024.
If you would like to help the Townsville University Hospital service continue beyond 2025, please donate.
Sponsor a Tablet
We use a tablet to play calming music; collect patient feedback surveys and demonstrate that patients can use the Calm Fairies app for continued sessions once our visit is over. Maroochydore Officeworks kindly donated 1 tablet and one private sponsor donated a second tablet. We only need 1 more for our Townsville location.
