Originally the League of Friends, the charity was established in 1957 to support the hospital, its patients, staff and visitors by volunteering and raising funds to supplement the services provided by the NHS. More than 65 years later we continue to benefit the patients and staff of Friarage Hospital and Hambleton & Richmondshire.
In the last 65 years, the enthusiasm and efforts of our hundreds, if not thousands, of amazing supporters have helped us raise an outstanding £5million.
