How Donations
have been spent
Just some of the ways donations to FOWH have helped Warminster Hospital & local healthcare:
The generosity of the people of Warminster, the surrounding villages and further afield has enabled the Friends of Warminster Hospital to provide equipment and services, not supplied by the NHS, but, normally as requested by local healthcare professionals, totalling £200,000 in value over the last 10 years. While the main part of this sum has been spent in support of the Community Hospital, equipment has also been supplied to local surgeries and Community Care. Some examples of this expenditure are:
- Ankle and Toe Pressure Kit (ATP)
