All the money we raise will go towards rejuvenating and revitalising the elderly ward spaces at York Teaching Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.

The Elderly wards at York Hospital are run with great care and efficiency but the design of the spaces is quite plain and clinical. They serve their medical purpose excellently, but lack any visual stimulation for patients; the walls are very bare and perhaps could seem austere. We would like to create welcoming, calming environments and where appropriate, also stimulating and engaging spaces that help make the most of the time spent on the wards.

The Art and Design team, working with staff and patients on the elderly wards, are proposing a project to rejuvenate and revitalise the ward spaces. This project will initially look at the refurbishment of Ward 37 with the aim to create a high standard of design which will inspire and lead the way for the enhancement of the other wards.
