Our mission

Welcome to the, award winning United Lincolnshire Hospitals Charity (Registered Charity No. 1058065). Founded in 1996 the charity has been supporting our staff to deliver outstanding care to our patients, their families and carers at Lincolnshire Hospitals. Funding the extras which we know can’t be provided by the NHS alone.

Why we exist

We strive to make a real difference by providing additional equipment, services and amenities for our patients, our visitors and our staff. This goes beyond the NHS budget, and supports and invests in pioneering research that will improve the care received and health outcomes across Lincolnshire.

Our mission is:

Strengthening high-quality healthcare in Lincolnshire by supporting the United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust to deliver compassionate and person-centred care.

What we do

We will work hard with the Trust to develop and fund innovative and exciting projects that make a real difference to the lives of our patients, their families and the staff that take care of them. By 2025 we will demonstrate that we have been a key enabler of improving and transforming healthcare across Lincolnshire.

• We work with staff from the United Lincolnshire Hospitals NHS Trust to provide additional items they require. 
• We look at the patient experience and understand where our work can go above and beyond.
• We want the NHS workforce to feel appreciated and supported by our Charity.
