Support us through the Festive Season
Please help us bring Christmas spirit to our patients and staff at The Royal Orthopaedic Hospital (ROH) this festive season.
During the Christmas season our dedicated staff will continue to work hard from behind their mask to spread love, cheer and above all else, provide outstanding services to those who visit the Trust.
Why your support is so important
Supporting our annual Christmas Appeal really does make a difference. In 2020 over £6300 was raised during the festive season in order to purchase gifts for both our NHS staff and patients over the celebratory period. This year we aim to make an even bigger impact.
By supporting our Christmas Appeal you will be helping us bring new initiatives to help distract, entertain and connect patients to their loved ones, as well as prioritise staff health and wellbeing throughout the festive period.
- £10 could provide a festive gift to a patient staying with us over the Christmas period.
- £250 could purchase a Festive gift hampers for staff on one ward this Christmas.
- £100 could purchase a smart bedside unit which eases isolation, enables video calling facilities and gives access to the latest films.
- £200 could support refreshments and distraction facilities in our staff wellbeing areas across the Trust.
“Each and every member of staff in The Royal Orthopaedic Hospital deserve to be proud of what you have, which is a dedicated team of professionals all working together to make this hospital so unique. ”
Your donations have made a real difference!
Festive Dress Day
Non-uniformed teams across the hospital supported Festive Dress Day by digging out their favourite jumpers, dresses and even head bands.
Christmas Deorations
Our annual Christmas decorating competition brought cheer across the hospital including our Clinical teams.
Patient Gifts
We originally appealed to our local stakeholders and businesses to support patients with gifts from Christmas Eve to Boxing Day, however due to the generosity received, we had enough to distribute these from mid-December!
Staff Support
Thanks to your donations we have been able to deliver chocolates and additional wellbeing support to all staff across The Royal Orthopaedic Hospital.
