Grant a Christmas Wish 2025

Give the gift of joy this festive season

Nobody wants to be in hospital, least of all at Christmas

You can help bring the gift of joy to all those who find themselves in our hospitals this winter. 

Your donation, however large or small, can help bring a smile to the face of a patient being looked after by Nottingham's NHS hospital this festive season.

Donate a gift

Each year, people across Nottinghamshire come together to donate gifts, hold collections, and support patients and staff in our hospitals. At Nottingham Hospitals Charity, it’s our mission to ensure as many people as possible benefit from this generosity, including those who are often overlooked. We distribute donated gifts across as many areas of Nottingham’s hospitals as we can, bringing a sprinkle of festive magic to every bedside.

Your donation, however big or small, can bring a smile to the face of a patient who is spending Christmas in hospital, and will help provide gifts and activities that will last throughout Christmas and beyond. 

If you’d like to donate physical items, please click here to read our Gift Acceptance Policy before making your donation. This ensures your generosity reaches patients in the most meaningful way and aligns with Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust policies.

Looking for a festive event? We have lots planned throughout December including the return of our popular Breakfast with Santa event, a Santa’s Grotto to support Nottingham Children’s Hospital and a carol concert event to support Palliative Care services across NUH.
