Valerie Peet Memorial Charity

The Valerie Peet Memorial Charity provides a range of medical equipment and services for patients in Bristol. The charity purchases equipment that would not normally be available on the NHS, such as oximeters to detect sleep apnoea by measuring overnight oxygen levels, 24 hour blood pressure recorders and a tympanometer to detect glue ear in children. We have also purchased high dependency mattresses, bath lifts and many simple aids for patients.

Funds are raised through Pembroke Road Surgery, with staff and patients taking part in a variety of activities from garden fêtes, cake stalls, and music gigs to running half marathons and skydiving. 

Valerie Peet was a much loved GP and highly respected partner at Pembroke Road. She sadly died of lymphoma after the birth of her second child. She is missed by the staff at Pembroke Road who knew her and by her patients.

If you know of someone who might find our medical equipment helpful please contact Dr Michael Rossdale, the charity secretary.
