Making a donation at Christmas
Want to bring some festive cheer to Nottingham's hospitals this Christmas?
Monetary donations remain the most effective way to support patients and our hospitals, not only at Christmas but all year round, helping to fund experiences that brighten hospital stays.
You can make a monetary donation online here.
While we strongly encourage monetary support, we understand that some businesses and community groups may wish to make physical donations, and we’re happy to help coordinate these to ensure they have the greatest impact.
If you would like to donate items, please contact our charity team first so we can coordinate delivery and distribution. This helps keep hospital areas safe and manageable for staff and patients, ensures your gifts reach those who need them most, and that all donations comply with infection control requirements.

This year, we’ve liaised with departments across the hospital to ask what gifts would be most impactful for their patients and put together some helpful ideas.
Please note that all donated items must be brand new and in original sealed packaging. Soft toys such as teddies are not permitted due to infection control.
