Help us make Christmas special for every patient
This Christmas, we want to make sure every patient spending Christmas Day in hospital receives a gift. A small but meaningful reminder that they are not alone.
Imagine waking up in a hospital bed on Christmas morning. Away from family, friends, and the familiar warmth of home. For many patients, especially those facing long stays or serious illness, it can be a lonely and difficult day.
That’s why we’re asking for your help.
With your support, we can deliver a present to every patient in our care — something to lift their spirits, spark a smile, and remind them that their community is thinking of them.
Your generosity will help us reach hundreds of patients across Torbay and South Devon. From children on the paediatric ward to older adults in recovery.
Show appreciation for NHS staff working on Christmas Day
While many of us are celebrating at home, hundreds of NHS staff will be working throughout Christmas Day to care for patients and keep services running.
We want to show our appreciation by giving each staff member working on Christmas Day a small token of thanks, a gesture to let them know how much they’re valued.
Your donation will help us celebrate the incredible people who make our NHS so special by provide a thoughtful treat to staff working on Christmas Day.
Let’s make sure our staff feel the warmth of community support this Christmas, just as they give so much to others.
Why donate money instead of gifts?
By donating money rather than physical presents, you’ll help us:
- Ensure every patient and staff member receives something appropriate and meaningful.
- Follow infection prevention procedures, keeping everyone safe.
- Reduce waste and make the most of every pound — so we can do even more.
Every present is funded by donations. Every smile is made possible by people like you.
Let’s make Christmas brighter
Together, we can bring joy, and a little Christmas magic to every hospital bed and every staff member working to make it better.
Every £10 you give helps us deliver a gift to a patient spending Christmas in hospital.
Torbay and South Devon NHS Charity is the NHS charity making things better for our local hospitals and for our community. Funding the big and little things that make a difference to our patients, their families and the staff that treat them.
