CHUMS is thrilled to have heard the news that we have secured a fresh 5-year grant of £340,200 from The National Lottery for our Trauma Service in Bedfordshire.
This is a huge relief as it gives us a secure base of almost 25% of the service being funded until late 2028. (1/3)

I first met this incredible young woman a few years ago when she was being supported by @BedfordOpenDoor. What initially struck me was the colour of her hair! 1/
