Charitable Funds Development Committee

Following the launch of DBTH’s official hospital charity, we’re making it easier for colleagues to submit applications for funding from the charity pot.

All wards and departments can submit bids to access the generous donations that the charity receives from patients, relatives, staff and local businesses. This means that you can apply for funding to cover the extras that will benefit patients above and beyond what is ordinarily expected.

You can submit your bids through the online form below. This form will be submitted to the charitable funds team within finance, who may ask for additional information or clarification prior to the next committee meeting, which are held on a monthly basis.
