Fundraising

Why do we need to fundraise?

As a registered charity Burrswood hospital does not receive any direct government funding. It relies on income from fees, donations, profits from its trading activities and fundraising initiatives.

This income is used to:

• Sustain the Access to Care Fund
• Support specific capital projects
• Develop the Mission of Burrswood

Recent fundraising activity

How do we fundraise?

We hold various events throughout the year such as concerts, fairs, auctions, dinners, golf days and many more.

In the local community we work with fundraising groups in schools and churches, encouraging people to hold coffee mornings, table top sales and sponsored events.

We approach grant-making Trusts whose focus matches well with our mission and purpose.

We are also developing relationships with corporate organisations to support Burrswood as their 'chosen charity' and maximise their CSR policies.
