My Charity Story
Inspiring staff at Guy's and St Thomas' to get funding to improve their hospitals
Charitable funds and donations play a big role at Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust. They help staff go that extra mile for patients and colleagues, turning many fantastic ideas into reality.
Our hospitals and community sites strive to deliver the kind of high quality, innovative care that sets the bar for others around the world. Every year, hundreds of staff come up with brilliant ways to do just that.
We help raise millions of pounds from generous donors each year. If you are a member of staff at the Trust, these funds are ringfenced to help you improve the experience and care of patients, and to support you and your team’s welfare and development.
Here, you can explore stories of staff who have used funding and taken part in fundraising activities to drive fantastic improvements across the Trust, and get support to write your own charity story.
"People wrote back to say 'the Trust caring about my mental health means a lot to me'"
