Great great grandmother, 90, embarks on second marathon for family fundraiser

A 90-YEAR-OLD woman from Andover is beginning her second 27-mile charity walk as part of a family fundraiser spanning four generations. Pauline Hoare decided to walk 27 miles before her 91st birthday later this month to raise funds for the Ocean Ward, where her great great grandson, Reggie, was treated as a newborn baby. As previously reported, baby Reggie suffers from a rare condition called Tetralogy of Fallot (ToF), which causes a range of heart defects. He stayed on the Ocean Ward at Southampton University Hospital while having heart surgery. Now several members of his family, spanning four generations, are getting involved in an epic fundraiser to give something back.

Hampshire Hospitals makes changes after Andover woman s fall

The NHS trust that runs Winchester hospital says it has made changes to its procedures at an inquest into the death of an “amazing” grandmother who fell while unsupervised on one of their wards. Loretta Ako, an acting clinical matron at Hampshire Hospitals Trust, apologised to the family of Helen Penfound after she fell in the toilet of Basingstoke hospital and fractured her left femur. A coroner found that this broken leg caused “further deterioration” and “reduced her ability to recover” from the impact of an earlier fall. The trust has since introduced changes to its procedures to ensure this kind of incident does not happen again.
