My sister in law has tagged 60 people on her fb. She wants us, all to bring a couple of Easter eggs and drop them off in her front garden so she can donate them to the nurses on the fronline.
While it's a lovely idea.. Should that many people.. Possibly a lot more as its now being shared... Be making the trip to her house to drop off eggs? It's a fair journey for some.

Sorry my question is aibu that I think this isn't a good idea.

Is it essential? No.

It's a no then.

How stupid

But then she'll look amazing on SM

Ridiculous

It’s a lovely idea, but no. Also worth considering that you can’t go wandering into hospitals at the moment to make donations anyway.

While it’s a nice thought it’s definitely not essential!

It would be better if people donated the value of the Easter Eggs on their local health trust charity page. The charity can then get the staff what they need.

Local kids hospital charity normally gets donated eggs from all over but obs can’t do that this year so donated £ for them to get eggs for the kids themselves. I’m a nurse too, and to be honest I don’t want an Easter egg from work/donated it means someone coming into the hospital and we don’t know where they’ve been or who has handled them prior to this woman or where she has been it’s a kind gesture but our hospital also has no visiting so how does she think she’ll get them there then trail round all the wards?

She has said she will contact the hospital and advise them she is dropping them off so a few nurses can come down and pick them up.

No, it’s a stupid idea and probably just designed to make her look good on FB

How stupid? Not an essential journey and I doubt the hospital will want an influx of easter eggs that a variety of people have touched. People just dont think at the moment.

Our local NHS trust charity has a shopping list for staff as well as a donations page. Are Easter Eggs what the staff want?

She used to be a midwife herself. She told me she got the idea of someone else on her Husbands fb so I don't know if this is becoming a thing people are doing.

She's being an idiot.

Lots of non essential journeys.

Lots of opportunities for contamination

Non-essential items and journeys.

Please talk some sense into her.

I have a friend who works for the NHS in Leeds so I randomly picked their charity
leeds-cares.org/causes/supportyournhs/

I know my local trust has something similar

Stupid and self-promoting only. Nurses can and will buy their own Easter eggs if indeed they want them. (Also patronising - and not a lovely idea at all)

No, no, no, no, no.

(Couisn is a FL health worker and says that, (aside from CV19), she would not pick up an egg to give to her kids that had been left by someone random in someone else's garden - would you??)

Not a good idea.

It's a really stupid idea.

Ridiculous

Not Essential

Pure Vanity

No! This is no tiMe for silly play! Please talk some sense into her

The things that the attention starved will do for social media likes! She's an absolute idiot.

It's not essential and she's encouraging people to travel unnecessarily! If she was that philanthropic, surely she'd buy the eggs herself and not feel the need to post about her good deed.

If she really wants to help, set up a Just Giving page to get financial donations that can go towards nurses. No contact, plenty of people will donate - just not that instant "look at me I'm great" feeling for her.

Nice idea but certainly not essential - they don't need the eggs.
