Hampshire Hospitals Charity is managed by the Foundation Trust itself and is split into ward and department funds. Much of the income is derived from donations from patients, relatives and friends.
The funds are used to provide items that will benefit both patients and staff as well as to brighten up patient treatment areas and staff facilities.
Most wards and departments have their own funds and the decisions as to how the funds are to be used are made at ward and departmental level, subject to guidelines issued by the Charity Commission. One of these funds is the Winchester Medical Foundation, which was amalgamated with the main charity in 2011.
If you want to know more about the funds or how to donate please contact the Foundation Trust’s charitable funds accountant on 01256 312758 or via e-mail at hh.charity@hhft.nhs.uk

Using Gift Aid means that for every £1 you give we get an extra 25p from HM Revenue and Customs, thus helping your donation to go further at no extra cost to you. To enable us to take advantage of Gift Aid, please download and complete the form, returning it to us with your donation.
Please remember that to qualify for Gift Aid, you must have paid or will pay an amount of Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax for each tax year (6 April to 5 April) that is at least equal to the amount of tax that all the charities or Community Amateur Sports Clubs (CASCs) that you donate to will reclaim on your gifts for that tax year. Please note that other taxes such as VAT and Council Tax do not qualify.
