We would be incredibly privileged if you chose to run for Frimley Health Charity. Every day, fundraisers like you are having a direct impact on improving our patients lives. By choosing to fundraise for us, we are able to invest in state-of-the-art medical equipment, make major improvements to hospital areas for patients and staff and fund specialist training and research at a time when it has never been needed more, and for that we thank you!
Here’s our ‘Perfect Fundraising Page’ and ‘Top 10 Fundraising Tips’ resources to get you started!
You can also download our printable ‘I’m running for’ and ‘I’m running in memory of…’ t-shirt signs!
“At the age of 35, I suffered a significant stroke which left me unable to speak, walk or write. This was a major concern and fright for, not only myself, but my friends and family. I was cared for by Frimley Park Hospital and given initial consultations and physiotherapy by the amazing Doctors, as well as being so well cared for by the nurses there. All FPH staff were so conscientious and considerate of my situation. The care they gave to me and my loved ones is something I will never ever forget and being able to raise money for Frimley Health Charity is only a small way in which I can express my gratitude.”
If you’ve secured your own place in this event and would like to fundraise for us, we would be incredibly grateful. It’s free to do so, and all we ask is that you raise what you can to help us improve our hospital services and the lives involved.

Once all of the hard work and excitement of your fundraising event is over, we'd be grateful if you could send the money you have raised to us as soon as possible. This is so we can start helping patients feel even better right away. We recommend you do this no later than 4-6 weeks after your event.
