Fundraise for NHS Grampian Charity

Every fundraiser helps bring comfort, support, and hope to patients and families across Grampian.

Whether you want to take on an exciting challenge event, organise your own fundraiser with friends or colleagues, or support a hospital, ward or medical condition close to your heart, there are lots of ways to get involved and make a difference.

From enhancing hospital environments and funding specialist equipment, to supporting advanced staff training and groundbreaking research, the money you raise helps fund the extras that go above and beyond core NHS care across Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire and Moray.

However you choose to support us, you’ll be directly helping to improve the health and wellbeing of patients and their families across Grampian.

Why Fundraise?

Nobody wants to have health challenges. Facing a diagnosis or treatment can be a scary experience, no matter your age, but together we can help make difficult days a little easier.

Thanks to the generosity of supporters like you, we fund projects that improve the health and wellbeing of the people of Grampian. That could mean:

• Creating calmer, more welcoming hospital spaces
• Funding specialist medical equipment
• Supporting patient wellbeing activities
• Providing enhanced staff training opportunities
• Helping families stay together during difficult times
• Supporting pioneering medical research

Every donation helps make healthcare better for local people, but providing extras over and above core NHS services. Your money is never used to replace statutory responsibilities, only to enhance them.

Support a Cause Close to Your Heart

With more than 230 dedicated funds to choose from, you can make sure that your fundraising supports a hospital, ward, department, or medical condition that means something personal to you.

Many of our fundraisers choose to support an area that cared for them or a loved one during a difficult time, helping give something back while supporting future patients and families.

Whether your connection is to children’s services, cancer care, maternity services, dementia care, stroke rehabilitation, or another area entirely, your fundraising can help make a real difference where it matters most to you.
