Charitable Donations

Addenbrooke's Charitable Trust

Addenbrooke's Charitable Trust is dedicated to supporting innovation in patient care across Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.

Whether it's treatment for an emergency, acute condition, pregnancy or long term illness, we believe that every patient deserves the highest quality of care available.

Thanks to the immensely generous support of our donors, Addenbrooke's and the Rosie hospitals can provide a level of patient care beyond that which can be delivered by NHS funding alone and make projects happen sooner or to a greater degree than might have otherwise been possible.

Charitable donations fund high-tech equipment, specialist staff, extra comforts and vital research to find potential cures and help save lives locally, nationally and worldwide.

Crisis at Christmas

Each year we support thousands of people who are homeless. And now, as the harshest time of year approaches, we're getting ready to help people again. Social distancing means we'll be doing things differently, but we'll be looking after as many people as we possibly can. And the spirit of a Crisis Christmas will be exactly the same. We will treat people with care and respect ? giving them that warm Crisis welcome, so they get their dignity back and feel ready to take on life again.

Oxford Hospitals Charity

Oxford Hospitals Charity helps to transform care - funding the best medical equipment, research, training and facilities for our patients and staff.

Although we aren't a huge charity we have a big impact - and that's because we keep things local and work very closely with our clinical colleagues to understand how we can really make a difference.

In fact, nearly every ward and department across all of our hospitals has felt the positive impact of donations, fundraising and gifts in Wills - all thanks to thoughtful and generous individuals who want to make a difference in their local community.

Donations also helped create the Cancer and Heart Centres in Oxford and the Brodey Cancer Centre at the Horton General, as well as the Oxford Children's Hospital.

St Mungo's

St Mungo's has been on the frontline of homelessness for 55 years, helping people to move forward with their lives. Our frontline teams are out on the streets, every day and night, looking for the people who urgently need our help.

Sleeping on the streets is brutal - particularly in the winter. It's freezing cold and damp, and the threat of illness, exploitation, violence, and abuse is ever present, especially for individuals most at risk.
