Milton Keynes Hospital Charity We make a real difference to the experience of patients, their families, and the staff who care for them at Milton Keynes University Hospital.

Milton Keynes Hospital Charity is the official charity for Milton Keynes University Hospital. We fundraise for all wards and departments, helping to improve the experience of our patients and their families - from our youngest patients on the Neonatal Unit, to older patients on wards such as our Stroke Unit. By supporting the Milton Keynes Hospital Charity you can make a real difference to the lives of thousands of people in and around Milton Keynes, when they need it most. All the money we raise funds items that go above and beyond what the NHS provides and we cannot do this without your help. Milton Keynes Hospital Charity aims to make a real and tangible difference within the local community, so if you'd like to get involved, we'd love to hear from you.

๐ŸŠ ๐Ÿšด A Sprint Aquabike at the Milton Keynes Triathlon, combining a 750m swim and 20km cycle
๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธTomorrow's Great South 10 Mile, her final event of the challenge

As a volunteer at Milton Keynes University Hospital, Judith sees first-hand the difference charitable donations make to local patients and families.

Together, through challenge events, bake sales and plenty of determination, Judith has now raised an incredible ยฃ1,000 for Milton Keynes Hospital Charity. ๐Ÿ’š

This evening, we join MKUH in remembering and honouring babies lost before, during, or after birth as part of the Wave of Light.

At Milton Keynes Hospital Charity, we are incredibly grateful to our supporters whose generosity helps provide comfort and create lasting memories for bereaved families cared for by our Baby Bereavement Team.

Thanks to charitable donations, we have been able to fund items and projects including memory-making frames and alginate kits for hand and footprints, a laser engraver to create treasured keepsakes, refreshments for the Forget Me Not Garden remembrance service, and enhancements to the Forget Me Not Garden itself, including its beautiful water feature. These special touches help provide comfort, reflection and precious memories for families during the most difficult of times.

Thank you to everyone who has supported these projects and helped ensure bereaved parents and families receive compassionate support when they need it most.

Helping our young patients at Milton Keynes University Hospital NHS Foundation Trust feel prepared, informed and less anxious

Thanks to funding from Milton Keynes Hospital Charity, children coming to MKUH for elective surgery and MRI scans can now access the Little Journey app.

Designed to help children and families prepare for hospital visits, the app brings together important information, virtual hospital tours, videos, relaxation activities and therapeutic games in one easy-to-access place. It helps children understand what to expect and reduces anxiety before procedures.

We're already hearing wonderful feedback from families:

"The app was really good; it really helped ease anxiety around the procedure. My daughter enjoyed using the app so much that she continued to play on it after the procedure, taking advantage of the games."

"The hospital tour gave a really nice, gentle introduction to what to expect. My child eagerly looked for each section before surgery."

And another parent told us:

"The app meant my child was excited about the visit today and had no anxiety at all."

Thank you to everyone who supports Milton Keynes Hospital Charity. Your generosity helps us fund innovations that improve care, reduce anxiety and enhance the experience of patients across our hospital. ๐Ÿ’š
