Ways to support the Highland Health Board Charity
Across the vast and rural landscapes of the NHS Highland areas of Highland and Argyll and Bute, access to high quality healthcare can be a challenge. The Highland Health Board Endowment Funds - also known as the Highland Health Board Charity - is the official charity of NHS Highland. It exists to bridge this gap - funding specialised equipment, enhancing patient environments and supporting the wellbeing of our NHS Highland staff and communities.
Your donation enables life-changing improvements that go beyond what the NHS alone can provide. From funding new neonatal equipment for our busy general hospital, to supporting mental health recovery programmes in isolated communities - we turn your generosity into real, measurable impact.
We focus where help is needed most, and where others often can’t reach. What makes us different? We’re local, we’re focused, and every penny stays in Highland and Argyll and Bute.
Together we can ensure everyone, no matter how remote their postcode, receives the compassionate, cutting-edge care they deserve.
Support us today. Make health and hope possible in the Highlands.
