28 Feb
Summary
- Parents raise over £1,000 in son's memory for hospital.
- Donation supports patients receiving respiratory care.
- Fundraiser honors Liam Guilliatt, who died aged 36.
The parents of Liam Guilliatt, who passed away during the Covid pandemic, have successfully raised over £1,000 for the United Lincolnshire Hospitals Charity. This heartfelt donation is in memory of Liam, who lived with respiratory challenges until his death in 2020 at the age of 36.
Liam was a frequent visitor to the respiratory support unit at Lincoln County Hospital. His mother, Carol, shared that the family developed deep connections with the staff there. The annual fundraiser, hosted by Liam's parents and a family friend, aims to ensure Liam's legacy continues by supporting other patients.
The latest event, held in December, generated £1,170. Connor Hill from the hospital charity stated the funds will significantly contribute to specialist equipment and resources. This support enhances the care and comfort provided to patients with complex respiratory conditions, ensuring they receive the same high-quality compassion Liam experienced.
