Stockport NHS Charity
Registered Charity No is : 1048661.
Stockport NHS Charity is the official charity for Stockport NHS Foundation Trust. We support your local NHS at Stepping Hill Hospital and across local NHS Community services. Our charity funds equipment, research and care to improve patient health and wellbeing for you and your loved ones.
Our aim is to help patients get better quicker and stay well for longer and experience the best possible care. Fundraising helps us to achieve this through enhanced medical equipment, improved staff performance, development and wellbeing and advanced research programmes.
Recent projects have included:
- Developing a Stroke Rehabilitation Garden onsite at Stepping Hill Hospital. This peaceful haven in the fresh air is used by patients and their loved ones to relax. Patients pot plants and take gentle exercise all helping regain memory and thinking, strength, stamina and balance.
- Purchasing Orientation Boards that display the date , time, and weather to help reduce anxiety for all our loved ones living with Dementia, making them feel more comfortable whilst they are receiving our care.
- Funding new triage kiosks for emergency patients, which will be in use when our new improved emergency and urgent care campus opens next year. The kiosks will provide instant guidance and signposting for our patients, saving time and relieving pressure on staff, helping patients get the care they need sooner.
Together we really can make a huge difference enhancing care, helping local people’s lives every day.
