Help Us Create Better Days for Patients on Fitzwilliam Ward, Malton Community Hospital!

Humber Teaching NHS Foundation Trust’s Fitzwilliam Ward at Malton Community Hospital helps patients regain independence after being poorly or having treatment like an operation. The ward also provides compassionate palliative care, ensuring comfort and dignity for those in their final days.

Now, we want to make their days even better – and we need your help!

We have launched the Better Days Appeal to raise funds for a brand-new Day Room on the Ward.

Staff on the ward have identified an urgent need for a better space—a welcoming, comfortable environment where patients can spend quality time with loved ones and take part in meaningful activities. This dedicated room will provide a place for better chats, where patients can connect, share moments, and feel supported. It will also enable staff to deliver better activities, from social gatherings to therapy sessions, all designed to improve health and wellbeing.

Crucially, the space will be dementia-friendly, ensuring that every inpatient can benefit from it.

With your support, we can create a space that brings warmth, companionship, and comfort to patients during their stay.

Right now, there isn’t a dedicated space for patients to relax, spend time with visitors, or take part in activities. That’s why staff have come up with a simple but powerful idea: a better space where patients can enjoy better chats with loved ones and take part in better activities that lift their spirits and support their wellbeing.
