About Us

Why We Need Your Help

There is a huge amount we want to do

The Hillingdon Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust has just under 3,500 staff and we care for over 500,000 patients each year. We exist to serve our clinical colleagues, patients and their families as best we can and help step in where the NHS is unable to. Unlike some charities that focus on a single need or care, we work with our clinical colleagues across the whole array of services the NHS provides from neonatal to end of life care. Not a week goes by where our help is not sought after.

Your help, be it in financial donations, to donating gifts in kind, to volunteering, to undertaking challenge events really does make an impact. The whole of the borough of Hillingdon and from neighbouring areas such as Harrow, Ealing and Hertfordshire pass through our doors from pre-life to palliative care.

You can help us make a difference. You are our community. We are your community hospitals.

Three ways you can help us now

Keep us in mind

As your local hospital charity, we're here to support patients, families and staff across The Hillingdon Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. Whether you choose to donate, fundraise, campaign on our behalf or simply spread the word, you'll be helping us make a difference. From bake sales and sponsored challenges to major events such as the London Marathon, every contribution counts. You can support the area that means the most to you, or donate to the charity's general fund, allowing us to direct support where it is needed most. All donations are managed responsibly with oversight from our governance board and independent auditors.

We welcome your gifts

Donations of gifts, products and thoughtful items can make a real difference to patients during their time in hospital. A small gesture can bring comfort, provide a welcome distraction and help brighten someone's day. Your generosity also helps the charity preserve funds for projects and services across the Trust. When considering a donation, we simply ask that you think about whether it is something you would happily give to a friend or family member.

Volunteer your time

Volunteering is a rewarding way to support your local hospital and give back to your community. Our volunteer services team recruits and supports individuals for a range of patient-facing and non-clinical roles across the Trust. The charity also works with businesses to coordinate corporate volunteering opportunities, creating meaningful experiences that benefit both hospital services and participating teams. Whether volunteering as an individual or as part of a group, your time and support can make a lasting impact.
