Coronavirus Update
Our team remain hard at work supporting the vital work of the University Hospitals of Derby and Burton Trust NHS Foundation Trust, throughout this difficult time.
To help contain the virus, we are asking our supporters to follow the hospitals advice on visiting and only come into the hospital if absolutely necessary and to comply with this, we have taken the decision to cancel all cheque presentations for the coming months and will keep reviewing this in line with government advice.
Regarding our events, we are at present, reviewing all events for the coming year and deciding whether to postpone or cancel events and will be in touch with fundraisers with updates on this.
Fundraising initiatives such as the NHS Big Tea and #ChallengeFlorence are postponed to avoid encouraging large gatherings of people.
As soon as we have updates, we will communicate this via our social media channels and website.
For the most up to date information, please follow us on our social media.
