We are fortunate to have a large membership of the Friends, many of whom take an active role in our fundraising activities, such as volunteering either within or outside of the hospital. However, becoming a member does not commit you to helping us in an active capacity; it simply means that you are supporting the hospital by joining the Friends as either an Annual or a Lifetime Member. Many of our members join because they, or a friend or relative, have received such outstanding care during their time in the hospital and it is their way of saying thank you.
As a member, you will receive a membership card which you can present to receive certain local discounts; and you will be subscribed to our quarterly magazine, Hospitality, which will keep you updated on the work of the Friends and how much every donation and membership goes towards helping the hospital.
If you would like to join us please print off and fill in a Membership Application Form and return it to the Friends Office with your subscription.
