League of Friends of Arbroath Infirmary

01/10/2026

Some of the funding requests we receive at the League of Friends are big whilst others are small but they can all make a difference to patient care and comfort.
We recently were asked to provide a set of Fitbeast pull up bands to improve flexibility and strength in rehab programmes, a physiotherapy inclinometer for measuring the motion of joints of patients and two digital hand grip strength dynamometers.
The total cost was £131.46, not a great deal of money but each item makes a difference to the care provided within the Outpatients Physiotherapy Department at Arbroath Infirmary,
supporting both patients and staff.
The League of Friends . . . it's what we do.

‼️WOW‼️
I'm blown away at the speed at which we have managed to meet the request for binoculars. We now have all that we need. Thank you!❤️

Can you help? 👀
EDIT: Arbroath Infirmary Medicine for the Elderly Unit now have donation offers of the much desired binoculars. THANK YOU!!! ❤️❤️

This is the view from the newly refurbished day room on the Medicine for the Elderly Unit at Arbroath Infirmary which I visited today. It's an interesting vista to sit and watch the world go by.
At the request of the unit staff, would anyone happen to have a small pair of binoculars hiding in a cupboard or at the back of a drawer never used that you would be willing to donate to the unit? Ideally they would like a couple of pairs but they do need to be small and lightweight for use by elderly frail patients. The League of Friends had previously donated binoculars but unfortunately they've gone 'walkabout'. Any help would be much appreciated.
