We help Northern Care Alliance (NCA) NHS Foundation Trust deliver outstanding care across Bury, Oldham, Rochdale and Salford. We are an NHS charity that makes a difference by funding innovative equipment, education, research and wellbeing support.
NCA is one of the largest NHS organisations in the country. It provides a range of healthcare services, including four hospitals and associated community services at Salford Royal, The Royal Oldham Hospital, Fairfield General Hospital in Bury and Rochdale Infirmary.
We have lots of exciting volunteering opportunities coming up and can't wait to hear from you!
On 11 March, we will take to the streets outside Manchester United Football Club on a busy match day against Southampton and raise funds for the RAPTOR appeal. This will be an exciting opportunity to be around the fans as they head into the ground whilst supporting NorthCare.
We're raising funds for new equipment to create the first hybrid major trauma theatre in the UK, which will care for patients from across the North West.
The RAPTOR Theatre will be located in the new Greater Manchester Major Trauma Hospital, currently being built on the Salford Royal Hospital site, and will treat those with life-threatening trauma injuries by performing scans, X-rays, and surgical procedures in one place. This will save precious time and reduce risk by ensuring patients don’t need to be moved to different locations to be cared for.
The RAPTOR Theatre will prioritise multi-trauma patients (those with multiple complex injuries), giving them the best possible chance of survival.
