Friends of Blandford Community Hospital

Events

The Friends have a regular schedule of Fundraising Events each year that are always well supported locally.  These events have become a success because of the continued commitment and dedication of a wonderful team of volunteers.

Our events not only raise valuable funds for the charity but help maintain support and public interest in the Hospital and health matters locally.

The Fundraising Working Group is always exploring new ideas to maximize the proceeds of the regular schedule and also to introduce new events to the calendar.  We would welcome any ideas, suggestions and involvement that you are able to give.

If you aren’t able to join us at an event but would like to contribute, please use the donate button below. Thank you.

Fundraising

The Trustees are currently responsible for the fundraising calendar throughout the year.

The Friends will have a stall at the Cheese Fair at Sturminster Newton on 13th and 14th September 2025, 10am to 5pm each day. We thank the volunteers for all the work they do to get this ready and for manning the stall each day.

The Corn Exchange in Blandford, which is going through a big refurbishment will hopefully be operational from Autumn 2025.  The Friends plan to hold a Spring Fair 2026 in the Corn Exchange.  Watch this space for dates and times.

If you would like to get involved with any of our events, need further information, perhaps share your ideas with us or join us as a volunteer, do please give me a call on 01258 450095.
