Patients under the care of the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust will receive festive gift bags this Christmas.
Brighterway, the trust's charity, will deliver the gift bags to patients, as well as festive treats for the wards.
The charity has partnered with specialist gift supplier Colleaguebox to create the festive tote bags.
Each bag contains a personalised Christmas card, chocolates, a luxury wash bag with handmade soaps, lip balm and a pair of socks.

The bags also include word searches, puzzles and colouring books.
Phil Pride, Brighterway charity manager, said: "We want to ensure our patients are the most important part of our Christmas celebration. These gifts are a small token to show we care and to bring a smile to faces across our community this Christmas."
The gift bags will be delivered from December 5, wrapped and ready for distribution.
The charity’s support extends beyond the individual gift bags. Brighterway is also providing festive biscuits to each hospital and charity it supports, creating a cheerful environment for patients, service users, and staff alike.
