In Season 2 of Harbouring Hope, we're exploring the people, partnerships, and bold ideas transforming healthcare in Nanaimo and across Central and North Vancouver Island. Join Barney Ellis-Perry, your host and CEO of the Nanaimo & District Hospital Foundation, as he chats with people from the front lines of our healthcare facilities and those whose generous time and donations help support ongoing improvement of healthcare in our community.
