Sponsors
Calm Fairies offer free sessions to patients in 3 hospitals in QLD, Australia. This is made possible because of the generous donations from our community & sponsors. If you would like to donate, you can choose to sponsor or contribute towards a specific item on the Calm Fairies list.
Calm Fairy Roz & Marcia have been kindly donating their time on the ward, after the pilot program ended. We are now seeking funds to keep their service running. Can you please help?
Sponsor Calm Fairy Roz at Caboolture Hospital
After completing the 12 week pilot program at Caboolture Hospital in June 2023, Roz has kindly continued to donate her time. We are seeking funds to pay for Roz to continue her Calm Fairies visits each week.

We have secured funding from a grant from Brighter Lives for a year of ward visits- yay! If you would like to help the Townsville University Hospital service continue beyond 2025, please donate.
Sponsor a Tablet
We use a tablet to play calming music; collect patient feedback surveys and demonstrate that patients can use the Calm Fairies app for continued sessions once our visit is over. Maroochydore Officeworks kindly donated 1 tablet and one private sponsor donated a second tablet. We only need 1 more for our Townsville location.
