Philanthropy

Grant Giving Organisations and Philanthropic supporters of Oxford Hospitals Charity have a huge impact across Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.

Working together, we help you fund ground-breaking medical equipment - enabling our world-leading clinical teams to keep advancing and innovating.

We help you support important medical research into some of health's most complex challenges.

And ensure your generosity can create more welcoming spaces across all our hospitals, as well as specialist staff to provide comfort and support to our more vulnerable patients across:

·      The John Radcliffe Hospital

·      The Churchill Hospital

·      The Nuffield Orthopaedic Centre

·      The Horton General Hospital

·      The Oxford Children's Hospital

Now more than ever, NHS budgets cannot keep up with the ambitions of our hospitals and clinical teams, to drive forward innovations that advance the care our patients.

So our programme of work, supported by you - our kind funders, offers a unique and rewarding opportunity to help make a very real mark on the lives of patients across Oxfordshire, the South East and in some leading specialisms, across the whole of the UK.

Our Major Donor team works closely with the hospital teams to match your interests and remits with our hospitals' most urgent needs and priorities. 

We also work alongside the clinical teams in our hospitals as well as the Charity and Trust’s senior management to map the needs and opportunities to advance care within our hospitals; ensuring the projects you help us fund are of the highest quality and offer the greatest possible benefit to patients. 

·      We work in partnership with you.

·      We ensure you or your organisation can realise your philanthropic ambitions and aims by aligning your interests with the right projects and causes within our NHS Trust.

·      We are dedicated to maximising the impact of every gift, to ensure your funding works as hard as possible to make a measurable difference.

Nothing makes us happier than finding the right project for you – one that perfectly aligns with your interests and matches our hospitals’ and patients’ needs.
