This voluntary organisation, which was granted charitable status in 1995, has four main objectives to raise funds via charitable donations/fundraising to provide seed capital for the development of new services in LUH, secondly to facilitate voluntary work to augment ordinary hospital services, thirdly to respond to ad hoc requests from wards for assistance and finally to fund bus to transport patients from LUH to St Lukes Hospital in Dublin to receive radiotherapy treatment.
The Friends have been responsible for raising in excess of €8 million from membership fees, donations, church gate collections and various fund-raising events throughout the North West since 1992.
