A huge thank you to the Oxygen Property Management Wellington Region team for running another pyjama collection drive for Hutt Hospital's children's ward. 💙 💙

The Oxygen team were able to collect over one hundred pyjama sets for the ward—which was double what they collected last year. The team credit the large number of the donations to the generosity of their landlords and tenants, The Warehouse Lower Hutt, and the greater Wellington community.

“Our whole team are blown away by the amount of PJ’s donated, and we want to thank everyone who supported the collection—your donations will put many smiles on our children’s faces this winter,❄️" said Hutt Hospital's Children’s Health Service clinical nurse manager, Sagni Prasad.

Nine-year-old Oliver Henwood has been in and out of Wellington Hospital for the past six years, so
he knows first-hand how boring it is to be stuck in a hospital bed.
Born with a bend in his shin bone caused by a growth anomaly, Oliver had major surgery at Wellington Hospital to correct the problem when he was four and has been back many times for ongoing treatment.
When he was tasked at his school to come up with a passion project that would benefit others in the community, he decided to help children staying in Wellington and Hutt Hospitals.
Oliver found watching DVDs a welcome distraction when he was in hospital yet found many were old or scratched so were unusable. He then took it upon himself to ask his local community in Cambridge for help by distributing flyers encouraging people to donate their DVDs. Once he collected more than 150 DVDs, he tested them all to make sure they weren't scratched before donating them.
