Your business can help make our hospitals better, and there are so many ways you can get involved.
You may have a special reason for supporting us and if there’s a particular ward or area of the hospitals you’d like to benefit directly from your fundraising, we’ll work with you to make that possible or you the funds you raise will go to our general support funds which means it’ll be used where it is needed most at the time of receipt.
Whether you choose to partner with us as your charity of the year, enter a team into one of our events or run your own fundraising challenges, your support will make a real difference.
We are incredibly passionate about going above and beyond at Doncaster and Bassetlaw Teaching Hospitals, and we are dedicated to delivering inspiring partnerships which don’t just support us but make a difference for your company too. Our dedicated Corporate Fundraiser will work with you to design an exciting calendar of fundraising events, challenges and opportunities tailored to your company, your staff, and your needs.
We will provide you with regular updates on our work, and will be more than happy to join your team meetings with our team of frontline staff speakers, ensuring that your staff remain inspired.
We will celebrate every success of our partnership, no matter how big or small ensuring that the communities that surround us know how you are making a huge impact to lives across Doncaster and Bassetlaw.
Here are some ways you and your company can support us
Charity Partner
Here at Doncaster and Bassetlaw Teaching Hospitals we’re working hard to develop partnerships which last more than a year and make a much bigger impact for our community.
Whether you choose to make a significant donation towards one of our appeals, sponsor a random acts of kindness day or partner a ward.
Albemarle Homes became our first corporate partner in 2021 pledging to donate £100 from the sale of their new homes at Vicarage Fields in Beckingham and Westmoor Grange in Doncaster. This amazing partnership will help raise over £30,000 after three years.
In return for this pledge, our charity supports Albemarle Homes with promoting their homes to our workforce. We do this by:
- Putting regular adverts in our internal staff magazine reaching over 7,000.
- Promoting their offers on our internal staff Facebook group.
- Providing a promotional space at any charity or staff related events which included our special thank you day at Yorkshire Wildlife Park and an invitation to the Doncaster Chamber Awards 2020.
- As a thank you for all of their efforts and their continued support, we gave a special invitation to their colleagues to join us at our special thank you event at Yorkshire Wildlife Park.
Helen Dillon-Pearson, Head of Marketing for Albemarle Homes says
“Community partnerships are hugely important to us and a big part of our company ethos. We’re delighted to have been able to partner with Doncaster and Bassetlaw Trust NHS Charity which has already been a huge success. The charity has helped raise awareness of our new development in Armthorpe and we’ve been able to already donate £1900 in just the short space of time. We look forward to growing our partnership in the coming years.“
Shortly after, our second charity partner Go Green came on board and we continue to work together coming up with ways to support each other. Throughout 2021 they have supported our charity in a number of different ways including taking part in our events such as the NHS Big Tea and Festive Sock Day, providing volunteers to help keep our hospitals tidy during Keep Britain Tidy Week and helping us prepare a special thank you gift for our colleagues but most recently they donated over 60 voluntary hours to help develop a Christmas fundraising pack. These resources are often extremely costly and as a small charity we would not normally be able to invest in such wonderful materials, however with thanks to Go Green’s amazing in house designer’s support, we were able to create a fundraising pack which helped us raise additional funds throughout the Christmas period and helped us launch our first Festive Sock Day.

Due to COVID-19 we are currently unable to organise for corporate volunteers inside our hospitals or at our events. However, as soon as we can we look forward to welcoming you and your colleagues.
