About This Funder

Liverpool University Hospitals NHS Charitable Fund supports the University Hospitals of Liverpool Group—Aintree, Broadgreen, and Royal Liverpool Hospitals—formed in 2019 from the merger of legacy NHS trusts, serving over 630,000 core patients in the Liverpool City Region and up to two million regionally. Its core mission is to enhance patient care, environments, and experiences beyond statutory NHS funding, embodying values of caring, fairness, and innovation through collaborative staff, patient, and community partnerships. Distinctively tied to one of the UK's largest acute teaching hospital groups, it empowers clinician-led projects for holistic wellbeing, fostering evidence-based advancements in a transparent, impact-focused governance structure.

The fund prioritises capital improvements to patient spaces (e.g., dementia-friendly areas, sensory rooms for autism), equipment acquisition, staff and patient wellbeing initiatives (e.g., cancer patient baskets, Christmas gifts), non-pharmacological therapies, and clinical research innovations. Beneficiaries include inpatients/outpatients, staff, vulnerable groups like those with dementia, autism, or cancer, and Merseyside communities, with a Liverpool-centric focus on high-impact, additionality-driven interventions.

Exclusively for internal hospital divisions, specialist teams, and staff-led projects; it does not accept unsolicited applications from external charities or groups. No income/size rules apply, but geography is strictly limited to the Trust's sites and catchment. Typical grants range £500–£40,000, approved via internal proposals at quarterly Charitable Funds Committee meetings—no public deadlines or online forms. It excludes NHS-core-funded activities, unrestricted support, or external core funding, uniquely differentiating through its hospital-embedded role in driving staff innovation and patient dignity.
