Chairman Writes:-
League of Friends Heatherwood Hospital
The League of friends was formed in February 1958 by members of the local business community and members of Ascot Rotary club. The League has given over 54 years of dedicated service to Heatherwood hospital. It is run on a totally voluntary basis and it is very rewarding for our volunteers to see patients and staff in all wards and departments benefit from our fundraising efforts and dedication.
To date our fundraising activities, through careful management have enabled us to donate to the hospital, gifts of vital equipment to the value of £283,621.
We are indebted for the support we have had from the general public and the companies and organizations over the years, and sincerely hope they still continue to support us in the future.
The League incorporates Radio Heatherwood as an entirely voluntary service. The members of which give radio broadcasts including music requests and dedications, to the various wards and depts within the hospital. From the feedback we receive this service is most appreciated. Radio Heatherwood endeavours to alleviate the unfortunate circumstances of any patient hospitalized. The dedication of the volunteers of Radio Heatherwood is a vital and excellent service to the hospital.
The aims of the league remain as they always have been to ensure patients and staff of Heatherwood hospital receive the best possible support.
We will raise our glasses to a bright future for patients & staff.
