We have had many, very generous offers from our local community looking for a way they can help and support our hardworking NHS staff and volunteers during this unprecedented time.

Funds from this page will allow Raise, our hospital charity, to accept donations and use the funds to make a real difference to the people who need it most in the fight against the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic.

Your kind donations will help us provide things like radios and toiletries for patients who may be in isolation. For our hardworking staff on our busy wards and departments, we're looking to provide comfy chairs , kitchen ware, hygiene packs and drinks and snacks . Our staff have said these items alongside the messages of kindness and support can give them a real boost and encouragement to keep going in the toughest times. If you would like your donation to go towards a specific item, please let us know in the notes.

If you are looking for more ways to help, we are currently looking for volunteers to assist us in a number of ways. To find out more visit https://www.raisewestherts.org.uk/covid

Please remember, the best way everyone can help us at the moment is to abide by the latest government and NHS guidelines regarding social distancing and self isolation.

Stay safe.
