About Us
Friends of Townlands Hospital has been a valued local charity since it was set up in 1955.
It is still run as a voluntary body by local Trustees with a small Committee including medical representatives. The Friends fundraise to provide extra amenities for outpatients, enabling specialist medical equipment to be purchased which will augment the provision of "one stop shop" services at our local Hospital.
Recently funded items are a treadmill, ultrasound scanner, bladder scanner, neurological and ophthalmic equipment.
Funding comes from small annual membership subscriptions, social fundraising events, donations and legacies.
We focus on carefully considered purchases and initiatives to help augment the provision of “one stop`’ medical services at our valued Community Hospital and to enhance the “patient experience”.
Our Committee includes medical representatives who help appraise the quality of any bids to our fund.
To ensure we can keep doing this donate and you can be confident that any funds raised will go towards our charitable purpose.
