We are seeking kind volunteers to sew and assemble 'fidget aprons' for our patents who need something to occupy their hands. Please look this up online and see their value. Advocate supplies the material and the items to choose to attach. I do ask they be assembled in a spoke free environment. Please consider this project that can be a great benefit to those patients in their 'end of life' journey! See example picture. We are also needing simple adult aprons made. They are made in your location and then brought to our office.
