Story

We will be raising money for WISHH Charity, who have a current COVID-19 APPEAL. WISHH charity works closely with Hull Infirmary Hospital and Castle Hill Hospital to support NHS staff and patient care. This is a great appeal and they have so far raised over £38,000 and we hope to increase this!!!

"Hull Hospitals and WISHH have already seen some incredible generosity from many members of the community and would like to thank all of the amazing companies, individuals and organisations who have already come forward offering support to our staff and hospitals for the care we are providing patients during the COVID-19 outbreak. However, there is still room for us to help our hospital get through this.We are in unprecedented times and will rely increasingly heavily on the wonderful staff of the NHS to see us through. The Hull University Teaching Hospitals official Charity WISHH is working closely with the hospitals to identify ways we can help. They know best what support they need from us all and this is only the start. Supporting staff is key, many are finding it difficult to take a break for refreshment."
