Donations
To maintain its position in leading the field in many treatment and research techniques, the Trust relies greatly on the generosity of the public in making donations to the hospital.
People's donations and legacies make a vital contribution towards improving patient care and the experience of visiting hospital. Your donations – however large or small – will help us to improve the service we are able to provide for our patients and their families.
Your donations can be made to the Donations Department, making your cheque payable to UHSM. Alternatively you may wish to telephone the office and make a donation by credit/debit card. If you are a UK tax payer, you may wish to complete a Gift Aid form which enables us to reclaim tax on your donations.
Please contact jan.owen@uhsm.nhs.uk (telephone 0161 291 5961) for full details on how to make a donation.
