Press Release

Making space, saving time

St Clare Hospice have recently worked with a local company – Copyzone Archiving Ltd – to free up a large amount of storage space for patient records.

Over 37, 000 pages of financial papers and manuals were scanned to CD-ROM and then confidentially shredded. This represents about 8 filing cabinets (or a small room full of paper).

Staff at the Hospice can now access any page from personal computers. They also have the satisfaction of knowing that they will never lose a file (duplicate copies are stored safely by Copyzone).

St Clare Chief Executive, Brian Hilton says “As a well-run charitable organisation we are aware of our statutory responsibility to retain records. We were not prepared to spend charitable money in creating more storage space. Copyzone’s work has meant that we can now optimise our existing storage space and use it for its prime purpose – patient records".

Copyzone MD, John Barfoot, says “We welcomed the opportunity to work with our local Hospice to provide a much-needed service at an extremely competitive rate.
