Andy Cowie and Lizzie Uzzell from the James Cowper Kreston Foundation received a warm welcome back to the Royal Berkshire Hospital recently, where they had the chance to see the new Airvo 3 machine in action and discuss its impact with the staff.
Funded through their Spring 2024 round, this advanced high-flow oxygen device is already making a remarkable impact in the Paediatric Emergency Department helping to transform patient care.
The Airvo 3 has given young patients greater independence, enabling them to move around freely while still receiving vital respiratory care. This mobility is especially crucial during safe transfers from A&E up to the paediatric ward, making the journey less stressful for both children and their families.
For staff, the Airvo 3 has proven to be much easier to use and has relieved the pressure and complexity of transporting patients, ensuring safer and more efficient care throughout the hospital.
The James Cowper Kreston Foundation is a charitable organisation incorporated in 2021 and has been set up to help support local charities achieve their goals. Whilst majority of the funds come from donations from James Cowper LLP Partners, the Foundation will runs several fundraising activities through the firm.
The Foundation provides financial help to registered charities across a broad range of sectors within the Berkshire, Hampshire, London and Oxfordshire regions.
