Friends Of Eastbourne Hospital is a hospital friends group that funds practical, patient-facing improvements at Eastbourne District General Hospital and related community services. Their support is highly local and responsive to staff bids, typically covering equipment, amenities, small service enhancements, and occasional major capital contributions where there is a clear NHS Trust-approved benefit. They also make a small annual bursary award program for hospital staff professional development and clinical learning that directly improves patient care.
Responsive, application-based grantmaking tied to staff bids and trustee approval with NHS Trust oversight. Most awards are small purchases to low-thousands of pounds, but they can also back larger projects in the tens to hundreds of thousands; the staff bursary program is much smaller, with around £2,000 allocated annually across one or more awards.

Strong applications should be specific, NHS Trust-aligned, and show direct practical impact; for bursaries, applicants should demonstrate a clear link between the training or travel and improved care at Eastbourne DGH.
