About our charity
Norfolk Community Health and Care NHS Trust Charitable Fund (NCH&C Charitable Fund) is an independent registered charity, charity number 1051173. It exists for the benefit of NHS patients, and their families and carers, primarily those of Norfolk Community Health and Care NHS Trust.
The charity enhances patient care through activities in in-patient hospitals and local clinics, through benefiting patients and their families and carers being treated at home, and through preventative information to empower people to avoid further treatment or reduce their risk of health problems.
We provide activities that are above and beyond those funded by the NHS, and in doing so make a genuine difference for patients, families, carers and the staff who look after them.
The importance of your support
The foundation upon which the charity's vital work is made possible is the personal donations, legacies, grants, and corporate funding we receive on behalf of our beneficiaries.
