Specific and Ward Funds
Supporting NHS Lothian to excel for the communities it serves
Every year we support colleagues across NHS Lothian to improve the care and experience patients receive in our hospitals and local communities.
Specific funds can help provide additional patient comforts, specialist equipment, staff development and research projects which are over and above what is provided by the NHS. Hundreds of separate funds are held for specific hospital wards, departments and other areas, and receive donations and legacies from grateful patients and their families.
If you’re an NHS Lothian member of staff, get in touch with us to find out how we can support you and your team to drive forward a new project.
