The Cheltenham & Gloucester Hospitals Charity funds projects, state-of-the-art equipment, and amenities for Gloucestershire Royal and Cheltenham General hospitals that go above and beyond NHS funding. They focus on improving patient care, supporting staff, and enhancing hospital environments, particularly in cancer care through initiatives like the Big Space Cancer Appeal.
Key Areas of Focus:
- Cancer Care: Supporting the Oncology Centre, including the Focus Support and Information Centre for patient advice and funding advanced equipment.
- The Big Space Cancer Appeal: Raising funds to transform cancer care facilities at Cheltenham General Hospital.
- Enhanced Facilities: Investing in improvements to hospital environments to make them more comfortable for patients and families.
- Staff Support: Providing mental health support, rest areas, and wellbeing initiatives for NHS staff.
- Specialist Equipment: Funding equipment like vein finders and CT scanners
The Big Space Cancer Appeal is a £17.5 million fundraising initiative led by the Cheltenham and Gloucester Hospitals Charity to build a new, state-of-the-art cancer centre at Cheltenham General Hospital.
The project aims to replace aging, "small and cramped" facilities with a environment designed for healing, comfort, and advanced medical care.
Update: April 2026: Plans for the new building have been submitted for planning permission.
