Helston Community Hospital is a small
Community Hospital with 24 beds and holds
various Clinics for people in the area.
The
main purpose of our League of Friends
is to provide funds for equipment and
all aspects of comfort and care for the
benefit of patients and staff throughout
the Hospital.
The League of Friends Committee supports
the Hospital by providing funding for
equipment to make the patients stay in
the Hospital more comfortable. We provide
Easter, Christmas cards and presents for
the patients. Maintain the Sensory Garden
and outside flower beds with the help
of the Helston/Lizard Rotary Club and
volunteers.
The
League receives support from the local
Community in the way of legacies, fundraising
events, donations and collections.
The
League of Friends raises monies by organizing
a Fete, Coffee Mornings and fundraising
events.

time. The council also very kindly donated
