Fundraising for your local hospital in your School or College is a great, fun way to give back to your local community as well as learning new skills! There are probably lots of children/staff/family members who were either born at or have received treatment at either Luton & Dunstable or Bedford Hospital; so have a personal connection.
There are lots of ways to get involved such as non-uniform day, odd sock day, Enterprise Days, cake/book sales, movie afternoons, sponsored run/walk/jog …or how about a sponsored silence!
Our dedicated Schools Coordinator will work with you to support you on your fundraising journey.
If you would like to get involved or find out more please get in touch with our Schools Coordinator Sabine: fundraising@bedsft.nhs.uk or call 01582 718289

Community & Youth Groups
As well as Schools & Colleges we also love to work with Community Youth Groups such as Scouts, Football Clubs and Luton Youth Partnership Service. It’s a great way for groups to earn badges and awards, as well as building on important life skills by giving back to your local hospital.
