Recognising Support from NHS Lothian Charity

We’re proud to support projects that enhance patient care, staff wellbeing, and healthcare innovation across NHS Lothian. If your project has received funding or support from NHS Lothian Charity, we ask that you recognise and celebrate this contribution.

Why Acknowledgement Matters

Acknowledging our support:

  • Shows transparency in how charitable funds are used.
  • Highlights impact for patients, families, and staff.
  • Inspires others to seek funding for their own ideas.
  • Encourages future donations to your ward or department.

It also helps us share your success stories with our donors, supporters, and wider community.

  • Tag us in posts and stories using @nhslothcharity.
  • Share updates about your project and its impact.

Equipment and Refurbishments

Working Together

Please let our Communications & Marketing Manager know about any planned publicity or media activity. We’re here to:
