The League of Friends is constantly requiring help and assistance and these come in a variety of ways. If you feel that you have some spare time in which you would like to help a worthwhile cause it would be much appreciated. The League of Friends are often looking for volunteers who can help with their fundraising events whether this be with organisation, publicity or advertising.

Join us for an exciting opportunity coming soon within Queens Hospital – The League of Friends are opening their first shop in July and to help us to get the maximum benefit from this shop we are seeking new volunteers. This will also be an ideal opportunity to meet with members of the public who may be donating either in cash or goods or as customers to purchase. We anticipate that the shop will help to improve on our fundraising and to greatly increase the £1.1 million we have already donated since 1980.

The shop will be an improvement on the table top sales we hold at present. We are aiming to stock a variety items including our very popular donated books, C.D’s and Jigsaws. We aim to have other quality donated goods for sale (not clothes, shoes or accessories) and also new items which will be of benefit to the patients and staff.

If you have any unwanted books The League of Friends hold regular book sales and would welcome any donations. Alternatively, any unwanted magazines are appreciated and used for hospital waiting rooms.

Finally, if you would like to make a financial donation to The League of Friends please feel free to contact us via the information given on the Contact The League of Friends link. Any donations can be made to a specific ward or department within the hospital and will be used for a worthwhile cause. If you would like any further details about any of the above information please feel free to phone or write to The League of Friends and we will be happy to talk to you. Contact details are here.
