Have a cuppa, have a biscuit – and raise money for York Hospital projects at the same time.
York & Scarborough Hospitals Charity is inviting residents to host their own NHS Big Tea and join one of the UK’s biggest tea parties – to celebrate the 74th birthday of the health service.
Last year more than 60 tea parties were held around York. Money raised from the NHS Big Tea has helped to fund a number of projects at York Hospital.
These have ranged from sympathy cards sent to bereaved families, to a new automated clinical information system which has transformed critical care.
Emma Sargent, community fundraiser at York & Scarborough Hospitals Charity, said: “We were overwhelmed with support for the NHS Big Tea last year, and we hope that this year our community will get behind the event again to show their continued support for our NHS heroes in York.
“Every day, donations are making a positive difference and every pound raised from the NHS Big Tea will enable us to continue improving patient care and experience and support staff wellbeing in your local hospital.”
To sign up to host your own NHS Big Tea event, or to make a donation, please visit york.nhs.uk/bigtea.
