Donations for Blue Heart campaign near £5000 target

A group on Facebook called A Blue Heart Thank You which was set up by volunteers from Pontypool, Torfaen has raised almost £5000 for the NHS.

As of 4:30PM on Thursday 23rd April, donations on the Just Giving donations page have reached £4,850 out of the £5,000 target.

The group of volunteers are making blue hearts for those that have made a donation to place in gardens or elsewhere for NHS Charities Together to show support and say thank you for the work being done in the NHS.

Funds will be used to support NHS staff, volunteers and carers working tirelessly in the face of Coronavirus (COVID-19).

There are 250 NHS Charities in the UK providing funds and services above and beyond what the NHS alone can provide. Everyday NHS Charities give £1 million to the NHS.

The Charity Registration No. for Association of NHS Charities is 1186569.
