And the winner is…

Community Fundraiser, Abbie Campbell and Head of Fundraising Alison McCulloch collected the award

In July this year, we were so thrilled to be named Northamptonshire Chamber of Commerce Charity of the Year for 2022/23.

When we saw that applications had opened for the Charity of the Year award at the 2022 Northamptonshire Business Awards, we got to work on making our case for this too.

The Northamptonshire Health Charity team works hard all year round to provide funding for equipment, projects and initiatives that enhance patient care and experience, and support the wellbeing of our local NHS staff at Northampton General Hospital, Kettering General Hospital, and all the community and mental health hospitals and services under Northamptonshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust.

Organised by the Northamptonshire Chamber, with Wilson Browne Solicitors as headline sponsor, local businesses from across the county gathered together for the awards ceremony at the Park Inn Northampton on Thursday 3 November, hosted by local broadcaster and journalist John Griff.

The Charity of the Year award, sponsored by Business Times, recognised dedication to helping the community through incredible support services.

Alison McCulloch, Head of Fundraising at the charity said:
I’m overwhelmed.

I can’t believe we won.

It means so much, not just to our charity team but to all the teams we support in the NHS and to all our generous donors.

It is amazing to be recognised for the difference we make.”
