PBLC's Charity 2023-24
Gully's Place
Gully's Place Trust Fund supports children and young people with life-limiting conditions. Gully's Place Suites at Poole Hospital and Dorset County Hospital provide a homely place for end of life care and after death. The suites also provide facilities to enable transition from hospital to home for children with complex conditions as well as a quiet area for times when they have to break bad news.
Gully's Place Trust Fund also provides equipment to enhance care on the children's ward, specialist training for staff, enhancing the environment for children and families and supports play and education for children during their stay in hospital as well as supporting children and families who require community care.
They support bereaved families across Dorset which includes Gully's Place Bereaved Parents Group, annual memorial services, a closed Facebook group for peer support, dedicated beach hut at Sandbanks, and specialist counselling service.
Our support enables them to continue to provide these services and benefit children and families across Dorset ensuring the maximum amount of benefit.

PBLC raises money for their charity throughout the year by selling specially designed charity bone and wood bobbins by Stuart Johnson (see below). At each of the bi-monthly meetings and Lace Day there is a raffle and all the proceeds go to the charity.
