The hospital’s spokesperson Lesibana Ledwaba said companies and members of the community can donate bed linen and towels to the hospital.
“We would also appreciate any books or magazines for patients to read while they are admitted. We welcome all ideas to make patients feel better during their time being treated at the hospital.”
He added that many people are being treated for life threatening diseases and would welcome any kindness shown by the community.
The hospital also needs toys, paintings and children’s books for the children’s ward.
“The late former president Nelson Mandela inspired us to show kindness to each other, we honour Mandela Day at the hospital by showing the sick that someone out there cares,” he said.
