NHS Tayside Charitable Foundation is inviting members of the public, local businesses and communities across Tayside to support Deck the Wards, its festive fundraising appeal to provide every NHS Tayside patient a gift who is spending Christmas in hospital.
There is still time for people to make a meaningful difference by donating to the campaign. Funds raised will help provide Christmas gifts for patients of all ages, festive decorations and activities on wards, and small comforts that make hospital stays brighter during the holiday period.
Deck the Wards highlights how even small acts of generosity can have a powerful impact, helping ensure patients spending Christmas in hospital feel remembered, cared for and supported.
Shelley McCarthy, Chief Charity Officer at NHS Tayside Charitable Foundation, said:
“Christmas can be an especially difficult time for patients and families who are unable to be at home. Through Deck the Wards, we’re asking people across Tayside to help us bring warmth, comfort and moments of joy to those spending the festive season in our hospitals. Every donation, no matter the size, makes a real difference.”
Donations can be made easily online, and supporters are encouraged to share the campaign to help spread festive goodwill across the region.
