Fundraising Events
Set yourself a challenge and raise money to support your local NHS Charity
Take part and get fit, reach a goal, or cross off a bucket list item to support NHS Lothian patients, their families and staff.
From the everyday to the transformational, you can make healthcare better for everyone; from refurbishing wards, making them more comfortable for patients, providing wellbeing spaces to care for NHS staff or supporting cutting-edge technology or equipment that can change lives. All these things and more have the potential to transform healthcare.
