Support your local hospital charity this Christmas

The festive season is just around the corner, and we know it can be a particularly difficult time for patients and their families at Lancashire Teaching Hospitals.

This year, we’re aiming to make Christmas a little brighter for them — and we’d love your help to make it happen!

There are lots of ways to get involved and spread some festive cheer, from buying our charity Christmas cards, taking part in our Christmas run, or donating or buying a gift for a patient spending Christmas in hospital.

Jingle Bell Jog!

Will you jingle into the Christmas season with us? We are pleased to share that our Jingle Bell Jog is back for 2026.

Give A Gift

Sadly, some individuals will be spending Christmas Day in the hospital this year, which is why we want to ensure every patient receives a special gift.

Our Charity team is appealing to local companies and community groups to organise gift collection points, encouraging everyone to donate presents. Alternatively, a small donation of just £5.00 can help us fund a gift and bring a smile to a patient’s face.
