Welcome To United Lincolnshire Hospitals NHS Trust Charitable Funds (Registered Charity No. 1058065)

About the United Lincolnshire Hospital NHS Trust's charity

Thanks to the generosity of our patients and their friends the charity received over £1.16 million during the 2010/11 financial year, which is greatly appreciated. These donations make a significant difference to the lives of our patients and staff and are spent in four main areas.

  1. The improvement of the patient environment
     
  2. Keeping staff up to date with all the latest medical advances and training courses
     
  3. Helping to buy state of the art clinical equipment for the treatment of patients
     
  4. Medical research

The donations are always spent on items which are not normally provided by the NHS budgets and are always in line with the wishes of our donors.
