Frequently Asked Questions 

Main article: Leeds Hospitals Charity: Frequently Asked Questions

1. Can I fundraise for a specific area of the hospital?

When you fundraise for us, you can be reassured that your money will go directly to where it’s needed most. However, you can also donate to a specific project or area if we have a live fundraising appeal or there’s an ongoing project in that department.

Whenever someone gives us a donation, we’ll take into account their wishes. We often have projects or appeals that we’re fundraising for, and all of these can be found on the Areas We Support page. If you know that a specific ward or department is fundraising for something, please let us know when you make your donation.

We support every area of the hospital and can provide examples of specific projects we’ve supported, for example at Leeds Children’s Hospital or Leeds Cancer Centre.

Read more: Areas We Support

2. How can I pay in cash I’ve collected?

The best way to pay in any cash to us is by visiting our office at Trust HQ, St James’s University Hospital, Beckett Street, LS9 7TF.

Please note that if you would like to make your donation in person, we need to know in advance - please email [email protected] or call 0113 539 7020 to arrange a visit.

PLEASE DO NOT SEND CASH IN THE POST.
