Why support TWINS Financial Hardship Service?
TWINS for iPouch & Stoma Patients Ltd is a private nursing company dedicated to providing exceptional specialist care for individuals with ileoanal pouches (ipouch) and stomas. In line with our vision and mission, we also offer nursing services to patients encountering financial hardship and unable to afford private care.
We are a small family business, and we try our best to support all stoma and ipouch patients who need our care and support.
We believe that everyone deserves specialist care, whether they’re preparing for stoma or ileoanal pouch (ipouch) surgery, need ongoing support and follow-up, or are facing challenges with their ipouch or stoma. You can support our Financial Hardship Services in many ways: by donating, via subscription to our affordable monthly care packages, corporate sponsorship and funding, or purchasing TWINS merchandise from our store.
Your donations will help us sustain our vital services and continue to support more people facing financial hardship.
By donating, you can help us make a significant change. Your donation will help us be there for more people who would struggle without our support during difficult times with their ipouch or a stoma. These timely interventions will also help prevent patients from attending emergency departments, requiring hospital admissions, or unnecessary appointments with their GPs and medical and surgical teams.
