What we do

We raise charitable funds to support the continual improvement of our fantastic NHS services, building upon and enhancing the work achieved with NHS funding.

Your donations and support make a huge difference for our patients, their families and our dedicated staff, throughout our hospitals, community sites and care in people’s homes, including:

• Enhancing the patient and staff environment
• Funding state-of-the-art equipment
• Heightening the level of patient care
• Supporting additional staff development and training
• Advancing medical knowledge through research
• Allowing us to go above and beyond what can be achieved with NHS funding

Many of our donors give to an area of care close to their heart, especially those who have experienced our care or left money to us in their will. We gladly honour donor’s wishes and maintain around 120 different funds allocated to particular wards, departments and services.

We also run big appeals to support major projects, such as funding new state of the art clinical areas or refurbishing wards for example. Fundraising for these ambitious projects enables us to benefit large numbers of people and achieve world-class care for our patients and visitors.

The generosity, goodwill and extensive efforts of our donors and fundraisers make a real difference for the people we care for, when they need it the most. But the benefits don’t stop there. By getting involved you can become part of an amazing community of fundraisers doing incredible things for others.

Our team is very happy to talk to you about making a donation and/or getting involved. You can contact us on 01392 402040 or email info@rdecharity.com. We look forward to hearing from you.
