COMMUNITY SUPPORT

Online Community

Our online communities are places to share relevant information, connect with other parent/carers, and find out more about The Brompton Fountain. These are active and supportive groups with an unmatched wealth of knowledge and experience. Whether you are looking for some advice, feel in the position to offer some guidance, or want to connect with those who just ‘get it’, these spaces are for you.

Through our variety of different channels, you can also learn about upcoming events, ways to get involved such as volunteering, fundraising, and work experience opportunities, and have a peek behind the scenes of what we do on a daily basis on our hospital wards and clinics.

Newsletter

We love to be able to update our community monthly with exciting charity updates. These can include invites to upcoming events and socials, debriefing on ones we recently hosted, highlighting our offers such as our funding of medical IDs and equipment, signposting to essential support for families like applying for Disability Living Allowance (DLA), updates about what we have been distributing to patients, families and staff on wards and clinics across our network of partnering hospitals, spotlighting patient and parent/carer stories, showing opportunities to get involved with us such as volunteering and youth work experience, announcing fundraising events and goal updates, and more!

Facebook

Our main The Brompton Fountain page is a fantastic place to see updates from our team about the work we are doing and those who we are helping. We have also built a community page called Our Brompton Families Facebook Group, which is for the families and patients (13+ as per Facebook’s terms of service) of the young heart and lung community under Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust. 

This group is a place to share relevant information, connect with other parent/carers, and find out about upcoming Brompton Fountain events. Whether you want to hear from others who have been in your situation or share a small success in your/child’s health journey, this is a safe space to do so. Click here to find our main Facebook homepage, and here to request access to our private community group. Within our closed group, we have also highlighted other closed groups held by our Community Champions, volunteer who run these to support families in their local area. Keep an eye out to see if your local area is currently being represented!

Instagram

Our Brompton Fountain instagram page allows us to constantly update our community on the inner workings of our charity. Whether this be giving a peek into our fundraising events, showcasing the stories of our wonderful patients and their families, or showing insight on what resources we provide in hospital, we want to make sure we have open communication with our followers.
