How We Raise Funds

The League of Friends has been raising funds for the benefit of the Hospital and wider Community for over 50 years. During this time it has raised and spent well over £2 million. These funds provide additional hospital facilities for both patients and staff. They are facilities that the NHS are unable to fund but the Community deserves and needs.

 

How We Raise Funds Via:

The Green Shop a charity shop opened in 2010 on the Colonnade and in 2020 moved over the road at the old motorcycle garage/petrol station. This has been a huge success right from the beginning due in very large part to Carole Williamson and Sandie Buckles who were instrumental in setting it up and then running it. The Shop is now Managed by Marianne Relf.
