Our patients, families, staff and local communities raise millions every year to support our staff and the work of the Trust. This then enables our Charity to support initiatives focused on improving the health and wellbeing of our patients, people and wider communities through compassionate and innovative healthcare, education and research.
Key areas that funds can support include:
· Improving the patient experience and environment
· The health and wellbeing of Trust staff
· Development opportunities for staff
We currently offer 2 grant programmes:
1 Small grants (up to £5,000), which can be applied for throughout the year
