We’re delighted to have been chosen as Salisbury Reds’ Charity of the Year for 2024 and 2025.
Salisbury Reds will spend the next two years raising funds for us and have a busy calendar of fundraising events planned.
Consultant cardiologist and Stars Appeal ambassador Dr Tom Jackson says: “We are so grateful that Salisbury Reds continue to provide their brilliant support for the Stars Appeal.
“They have supported us for many years and now to be their Charity of the Year is fantastic. In my department the Stars Appeal has made an incredible difference by funding a second lab in our cardiac suite and other state-of-the-art equipment. The support of Salisbury Reds will help us do even more for patients across the Hospital. Thank you so much.”
Salisbury Reds will also be raising awareness of our work onboard their buses. Look out for the Stars Appeal display on the back of a bus.
David Newton, operations manager of Salisbury Reds, adds: “The Stars Appeal raises money to create the best possible experience for patients and their families by funding extra care and equipment over and above that provided by the NHS.
“Our relationship with the charity spans more than 10 years – with many of our staff benefiting directly from the support it provides. My colleagues have voted, and I’m delighted we will once again be raising as much money as possible for this vital resource.”
