Charitable funds

Cornwall Partnership Foundation Trust Charitable Fund is a registered charity (1058366) established for the benefit of our patients.

The charity receives its income from legacies, grants, sponsorship or donations from patient’s or their relatives who just want to say thank you for the care they have received. All the donations no matter how large or small are gratefully received and are a very important source of funds for us.

Some of the ways in which the money is used for the benefit of our patients and to support the Trust are as follows:

  • medical and other equipment to support diagnosis and treatment of patients
  • refurbishment of wards and other areas to create a better environment and generally enhance patient care
  • furniture such as over chair and bed tables, bedside lockers, patient seating
  • extra comforts for patients such as televisions, entertainment, sensory equipment, and other recreational facilities
  • training and education for staff to learn best practice and continually enhance the care we deliver

You will find specific details of the grants that the Charitable Fund has made to Cornwall Partnership NHS Foundation Trust in our annual report and accounts which also contain details of the funds we hold.
