Welcome to the Foundation Team

We’re here to connect our community with St Andrew’s Hospital through volunteering, events, and philanthropy.

Our team cares for a 130-strong volunteer community, supports the new Wellbeing Centre, and manages the hospital’s social media. We also drive fundraising efforts that help bring major equipment to life, support new developments, fund joint clinical roles, and offer scholarships that strengthen care across the hospital.

Together, we help create restorative experiences for patients, families, and staff - and ensure St Andrew’s continues to thrive for generations to come.
