During Coronavirus nurses, doctors, porters, cleaners, catering staff, office workers and many other local NHS staff at Salisbury Hospital are continuing to work hard to be here for you and your loved ones and make sure patients receive the very best care. As Salisbury Hospital’s charity, the Stars Appeal is committed to continuing to support both staff and patients throughout the pandemic and beyond. Please help us to do this by donating or fundraising.

Dr Duncan Murray, Intensive Care Consultant and Stars Appeal Ambassador says “The support offered by the Stars Appeal at this challenging time is more valuable than ever to both our hospital staff and patients. Thank you to everyone who supports us. Please continue to donate or fundraise to enable our charity to continue to help us all. Your support is vital to us – thank you.”
